25.01.2022 First day of the Holiday Break! I've got many musical plans for the period. Including sharpening up with my sight reading and extended chords.... I'm also taking the plunge into beginner piano repertoire since I use it in class to explain music theory. I felt I should utilize the instrument more! I'm looking forward to making music with friends and family and seeing what progress others make with their time off!

24.01.2022 Great to see TCTC getting some recognition. It offers some incredible courses that many of Townsville's local muso's and trainers have taken part in. I am happy to have been a student in the Cert 2 and 3 in Music / Audio Engineering as well as teaching the course for a term and am tutoring current students with their studies too. It's always a great time getting in each week and sharing a space with other creative people I would have otherwise never met.

21.01.2022 RHYTHM: This is a very interesting video. I have used a circular template to explain recurring chord progressions with some students in the past. I've never seen this applied in this way before, and it is interesting to see how we can very closely relate cultural differences in music.... NOTE: For advanced students. Found online while I was looking for a great rhythm tutorial for young students. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UphAzryVpY

19.01.2022 Thank you everyone for a great year (all things considered*)! We're feeling truly blessed to have continued lessons when able and even had some private students opt for some online lessons in term 2! We're officially off duty for the year, but will still be available by appointment and availability. ... We hope to improve our online presence over the break via both our website and YouTube channel in order to provide additional resources for both our students and other interested parties. I'm very proud to have continued my Bachelor of Music and come through strong in preparation for my final year in 2021 with CQUniversity Townsville. We'd like to encourage all students and parents to continue practicing and playing the guitar over the holiday period to solidify the repertoire and technique we have developed over the year! Thank you all! I have truly felt your thanks and appreciation throughout the year, and via goodbyes over the past two weeks. Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas!

17.01.2022 A friend of mine sent me this piece that he'd really like to learn. It incorporates some transposition and percussive guitar techniques, and I'll assume some altered tuning (very common for percussive players). It made me think, what are your favourite pieces that you want to knuckle down and perfect? P.S. Tobias Rauscher has a great interactive book on percussive guitar techniques which I own a copy of; Fingerstyle Guitar Secrets available at www.fingerstyleguitarsecre...ts.com filled with print sheet music, tablature and access to online resources to hear examples too! https://www.youtube.com/watch

12.01.2022 The school and University terms have begun back and we're back to attending and teaching lessons! We're happy to have doubled our enrollments at one of our schools between Term 1 and 2! So, it's great that new students are enjoying the skills their friends are demonstrating! At Cquniversity Townsville I'm looking into BeBop this term learning new scales and minor harmony theory! ... Best of luck to everyone with their musical journey!

11.01.2022 So you can strum a tune in The Last Of US 2 - PART II! Here's Mark Hoppus of blink-182 giving their breakthrough song Dammit a run through. 4 Chords - C | G | Am | F |... You can try this with any of the songs from our previous post with a link to a dozen songs that share the same chords. #Wholesomecontent #Blink182 #MarkHoppus #FourChordSongs #4Chords #FourChords #TheLastOfUspartII #Youtube #Twitch #Streaming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WH3cCrp_vs0

07.01.2022 Here's a reference sheet that I've made up for beginners who want to learn how to read sheet music. We often work around sight-reading and the musical staff to focus on practical performance skills. But, for those with the interest, we are happy to approach sheet music. We find it a great way to engage younger students also who are still building their dexterity and hand-eye coordination too! ... Don't be intimidated by it. As I performed on stage for 10 years before I started learning to sight read. We have plenty of work arounds if this is not for you. ;)

06.01.2022 With the start of Term 3 we've taken on another group of students for single and paired lessons. Some of our new students were a part of a Guitar Ensemble. So I'm excited to see what these Hal Leonard books have in store as well as sourcing some classical pieces too which will match the ensembles existing repertoire. #Guitar #Jazz #Pop #MusicalChairs #MusicalChairsTuition #Townsville #Music #Teacher #Tutor #Classical #Rock #Ensemble #HalLeonard
