One Minute Lesson Bundle

The One Minute Lesson Bundle gets you all three courses in this series as a digital download. That is 31 videos in total. By owning all three courses you give yourself a rich resource covering the common questions that students often have on the subjects of Phrasing, Harmony and Technique. Don’t be fooled by the simple title of “One Minute Lesson.” Many times there is a video that lasts approximately one minute but each lesson often contains many additional PDFs to flesh out the concept so that you aren’t left with the situation where you find out that there is something you should learn but you don’t have any directions on how to learn it. The One Minute Lessons are the exact opposite. They bring up a important musical topic and give you concrete ways to solve each problem.

What is The One Minute Lesson Series?

These One Minute Lessons cover many of the topics I discuss with my private students. These conversations sometimes arise because a student asks me about a certain subject but more often it’s because I hear a weakness in their playing or musical perception. The One Minute Lesson is not meant to be an exhaustive study; of any particular subject rather it is an insight into one subject that is sometimes small, sometimes big but always important.

More Info on the One Minute Lesson Bundle

At the outset you should realize that some of these “One Minute Lessons” have much more content than others depending on the subject. This variance in the amount of material supplied in a One Minute Lesson is usually caused by the subject presented. Sometimes additional PDFs with specific exercises and MP3s and Midi files will be supplied to help a student master a particular subject but other times it might just be a lesson where I’m nudging a student to keep something important in mind or refine their understanding of something they might know but not completely understand. In general I think these “One Minute Lessons” should be watched every few years as you work on your musical skills because different subjects will become important to your development at different times.
