How Songs Work - Workshop with Jim D'Ville

We are please to be able to offer this special workshop with nationally recognized music educator Jim D'Ville.

Workshop fee: $25 per person

How Songs Work (All Levels)
There is a chord associated with each of the seven notes of a major scale. When played in context, each chord evokes a certain emotional response from the listener. Learning these chordal relationships will open your ears to the chord progressions to millions of songs. This is the first step to learning to play by ear and could change the way you listen to and play music. Knowledge of finger positions for C, dm, em, F, G, am, helpful. This is Jim’s signature workshop.

Bob Tigert-Nashville, TN:
“I have recommended this workshop to both new and seasoned players, because of the way Jim D’Ville explains how and why, instead of just what to do, when learning, playing and understanding music. This is time well spent learning about the heart of music… and enjoying the process!”
