E112: A Composition Course Built for Piano Teachers w/ Guest Carol Matz Apr 17, 2023

Show notes

Carol Matz is a dear friend of mine. We have collaborated on projects and webinars many times over the last few years. You may know her as the creator of the Interactive Piano Method which has been my go-to method for several years now. She has worked with Alfred and FJH and many of the big publishing companies. Most recently Carol has created two courses helping piano teachers learn how to compose. She has two courses, For teachers who want to compose, and for teachers who want to arrange. Carol has spent over a year developing these courses so that any piano teachers no matter your level can learn how to write music for your students and also learn how to incorporate composition into your daily lessons!
