Welcome to Room ‘A’ Records Creative Music Strategies!

We want to personally welcome you to a music lesson that is unlike any other. We are nontraditional and use a chordal approach to music. Our single goal is to provide an enjoyable and creative experience while simultaneously obtaining results. Together, we shall immerse ourselves in different types of music, songwriting, jazz & rock improvisation, fake book & conventional sight reading, ear training, and much more. We focus upon individual personal interests, thus every lesson will be an adventure in developing YOUR musicianship.

Here Are Some of the Concepts We Shall Explore

  • Learn how to play songs from your favorite CDs or iPod by developing your “ear.”

  • Appreciate multiple styles such as Rock, Alternative, Jazz, Blues, Pop, Jam Band, and New Age.

  • Experience the art of songwriting and arranging.

  • Improvise like a pro using modal theory and a variety of other jazz techniques.

  • Expand your knowledge of theory and sight reading.

  • Make a connection with sight reading using RKM and other reading techniques.

  • Explore the concept of reading music from a fake book.

  • Unravel the secrets of the Nashville Number System.

  • Master the necessary techniques required to play quickly and accurately.

  1. CREDITS AND REFUNDS: Due to the generous rain check make-up program, credits or refunds will not be issued to any student who cancels a scheduled lesson. EMERGENCY CIRCUMSTANCES: If your teacher needs to cancel a scheduled lesson for any reason, a make-up lesson will be provided.

  2. CANCELING WITH 24 HOURS NOTICE: If a student cancels a scheduled lesson with 24 HOURS NOTICE, he/she will receive a lesson rain check that must be used within 3 (three) months of the original lesson date. It is the student's responsibility to set up all rain checks. Rain checks are scheduled based on availability. Each student may receive a maximum of 4 (four) rain checks during the school season (September – May). During the summer season (June – August) each student may receive an unlimited amount of lesson rain checks. Rain checks cannot be used towards a standard monthly lesson payment and will expire 3 (three) months after the original lesson date. If a student discontinues lessons for any reason without providing a ONE MONTH NOTICE, all active rain checks will immediately expire. MAKE-UP LESSONS: If a student cancels a scheduled make-up lesson, he/she will not be eligible for another make-up lesson.
