Piano Performance
A fine concert performer can captivate the attention of the audience from the first note to the last.
Good performance does not happen by chance. It takes a great deal of talent, study and sensitivity to understand the exquisite art of live performance. A good performer will present the ideal mix between drama and subtlety, dynamic sound and contrasting shades to paint abstract imagery for an audience to enjoy.
This workshop/masterclass is designed to have such a mix. Factors such as sound production, accuracy, artistic merit, technique and overall mastery of performance will be discussed in detail regarding interpretative, technical and expressive skills. DNA Global Enterprises will present a live student performance which will be dissected in a constructive and friendly manner to explain the qualities of performance which are successful and the areas which could be improved. Please feel free to contact us to book in a piano masterclass.
Examination Preparation
There are several techniques which experienced teachers can apply for effective music exam preparation. Students require comprehensive schedules set in timeframes calculated to accommodate all aspects of examination requirements. In this workshop, the speaker will address the main factors in examination preparedness. Reference will be made to London Trinity College and ABRSM exam expectations with details from both these syllabuses open for discussion.
Wherever there is a piano available in the venue, the option of having students selected to perform in a live situation is encouraged in this workshop. We design these workshops to be educative and fun where professional teachers, parents and students will obtain a better understanding of a music exam environment.
