We Believe in Opportunities to Perform
At The Musik
Planet, we believe that regular showcases and
performances are the key to success for the novice and
the serious student. Those that want to enhance their
studies will want to take advantage of performing in
front of a non-threatening audience for experience.

We encourage
our instructors to perform and enhance their success as
well. We encourage involvement with local music
organizations so the students of teachers have
opportunities to enroll in festivals, recitals,
certificate of merit, local competitions, etc.
These experiences give students experience and great
resume reference for their future in any field they
choose.
.........................................................................
Did you know that negative
comments can actually reinforce wrong performance? In
my experience with teaching piano, I have found that
positive reinforcement is more effective than negative.
In commenting to children and adults, I try to get
them to see the desired results. This helps them to
visualize and stir their creative juices with positive
reinforcement.
For
example, "I like how you hit this passage, and
counted this part. Let's carry that to this passage and
phrasing."
And,
"Let me demonstrate for you. Watch how I count this.
Now let's try it together."
My
philosophy is to help depict success and how to
constructively change a weak performance to a strong
musical one. University psychology studies have proven
that pointing out wrongful and negative performance is
not nearly as effective as bringing about desired change
by giving positive comments. I remember hearing that
the average child in the home receives only one positive
response for every twenty-one negative responses. I
heard this early on in my teaching career, but I always
taught by positive reinforcement. I have continued
to teach with positive reinforcement these past thirty
years. Positive comments build confidence
and the desire to do better. I choose to teach success, not stress.

Musical Theory: Do I Need To Know It?
Aside from the academic study of music theory, which
explores the theories surrounding music issues, such as
whether or not a piece of music fits into one category
or another, music theory is really the nuts and bolts of
music...
