I've studied classical music for years. Will this course benefit me?
Yes. The big difference is that the focus of this course is on teaching you to understand music, not on note reading or playing a particular song. The explanations found here are not typically found at a classical lesson. Your background in classical music will be helpful because it will allow you to move through the material at a quicker pace.
Can I take this course even if I have no experience with music or with playing the keyboard?
Absolutely. Experience with music or the keyboard is not needed or expected. In fact, Getting Started contains two introductory lessons designed just for those who are new to music or the keyboard.
How about age? Is this course designed for older students or younger students?
This education is for anyone who is curious and motivated to learn, regardless of age. Older students will be able to work on the material independently. Younger students may benefit by learning together with an adult.
