A FULL and COMPLETE music course in Los Angeles, California For Sale

Type: Music instruments, For Sale - Private.

Upon completion of my program, you will have gained the abilities and confidence to write/arrange/perform in all styles (including new ones that you may create), and in all settings, from solo piano (or guitar) up to full symphony or any setting in between. This is not a program for someone that is looking to learn a couple of flashy tricks or riffs, it is a serious course of study comparable to, or more advanced than those taught at the most respected music universities.
I can convey a total understanding how everything connects - your ear to your eyes and hands on your instrument - you'll also be totally and intimately familiar with how your ear is connected to all of the theory as well as to your intellect, thus allowing for total control of your playing and writing.
Are you tired of weekly lessons that take you nowhere in the long run? It's been said that this is truly the most advanced music education program available anywhere. My program is different because it systematically deconstructs all of the barriers between you and the music that you've always wanted to create. We'll start from square one (regardless of skill level) to make sure no stone is unturned - if it's discovered that you're already solid on any specific topic, you'll move on to the next one. You'll continue in this fashion weekly and upon completion of studies, you'll be the professional musician that you've always known that you could be.
Here's what one of my students had to say:
"As a graduate from the Berklee College of Music I can easily say that Rick's course is just as serious as my studies at Berklee, except much more thorough, and far more efficient. His one-on-one sessions make it impossible to slip through the cracks and not fully understand a topic, which is something that you will not get at ANY music school. If you have the necessary drive and dedication that it takes to become a professional musician, this course of study is the one to get you there."

Prior to studying with me, Aaron had obtained dual Bachelor's Degrees with a 3.9 GPA from The Berklee College of Music.
My educational background and experience includes:

- Currently performing as a solo guitarist (similar to Ted Greene, Tuck Andress, Howard Alden, etc.)
...I can also teach online via Skype and currently have students in NYC, Chicago, Berkeley, Austin, Phoenix, Denver, Vancouver, Gainesville, and others
...I can teach any and all instruments (the musical knowledge and understanding are transferable to all instruments), provided that you have a basic knowledge of your instrument (fingerings, embouchure, etc)
...Many references available worldwide...
My rates (though not inexpensive) are quite competitive when compared to other highly skilled and experienced music educators.
