Dennis Thurmond / Former Professor, University of Southern California & Berklee College of Music / Piano Online Public Lessons
Learn from a former professor at the University of Southern California & Berklee College of Music who knows both weight and lightness / Tuesday, October 2021, 10 Limited to 19 people
I like the American style open mind of Professor Thurmond, who is active in various fields such as classical, jazz, gospel, pop, and electronic music.
Professor Thurmond is an active musician who handles everything from classical and jazz piano to synthesizers.So far, he has toured all over the world on performance tours.His recent achievements have been particularly remarkable, with music featuring a famous soul singer who participated in the Poston Pops Orchestra as a synthesizer, was in charge of the keyboard for the Grammy Award-nominated vocal groove "New York Vocal Jazz Ensemble". Served as a production arranger for the event "Gospel Review".He also participates in the music of the Golden Globe Award-winning TV drama "Party of Five" on the piano as a studio musician.It's great that he's been so active as a professional, but he's also focused on teaching younger generations.He taught piano and keyboard at Berklee College of Music and Southern California University, and taught master classes at the Utrecht Conservatory and Shanghai Conservatory in the Netherlands.I am glad that he is thinking about many students who are learning the piano, such as publishing an original piano songbook using MIDI technology for intermediate students as well as teaching high-level students.Also, if you are interested, you will be taught the technology of making sounds for electronic musical instruments.At the University of Southern California, he was the chief professor of piano education while taking classes in the piano department.Since he taught jazz when he was a professor at Berklee College of Music, he can learn anything from classical to jazz.
* If you are wondering whether to go to classical music or jazz or pop music, or if you want to change from classical music to jazz or pop music, you can also consult with us!
A public piano lesson by Professor Dennis Salmond, a former professor at the University of Southern California and Berklee College of Music, will be held on October 2021, 10 (Tuesday)!
A limited number of people can receive direct guidance from Dr. Dennis Thurmond from the And Vision Hall in Ochanomizu, Tokyo, or at your home (online attendance is also available).If you are studying in the United States and are thinking of studying abroad on the piano, you can get a foothold in studying abroad.The lessons of a former professor at the University of Southern California & Berklee College of Music will help you decide where to study.The professor is happy to share various music with Japanese people.Anyone, regardless of age or level, can take this course.Especially for those who are thinking of studying abroad on the piano, preparing for the competition audition, improving their level, and those who are purely music lovers!Don't miss this opportunity!Due to the time difference, it will be held with a very limited number of people.
* Private lessons are recommended for those who do not want to publish lessons or those who do not meet the schedule. If you are interested, please contact an And Vision Counselor.
If you haven't taken lessons yet, you can listen to them.There is so much you can learn by not only playing for yourself, but also watching other people's lessons.In fact, many students in the United States and Europe are studying through attendance.It is also an opportunity to listen to the performances of many other people, and through the lessons of various people, you will be able to better understand the teacher's teaching method and personality.Musical instruments other than the piano can also enjoy the atmosphere of overseas classes, so please feel free to join us.The teaching method of overseas professors is completely different from that of Japan.In particular, the main focus is to "enjoy and express music more", so the points to teach vary from student to student.Isn't it a big point for those who are aiming to study abroad or become a professional in the future to feel how the points of teaching are different from those in Japan?Even if you are not satisfied with Japan, it will be an opportunity to think about studying abroad.
If you are thinking of studying in the United States, you can try studying abroad while you are in Japan.Consider the possibility of studying abroad in the United States.
It's a great chance to meet an overseas teacher while you are in Japan!
Just thinking does not open the door to your dreams. There is only action. Don't miss this opportunity!
