Course Overview
-
Keyboard Techniques: It focuses specifically upon the mechanical, physical and ergonomic principles of your playing technique. The course is designed to help you remove the technical barriers that most frequently prevent effective self-expression on the instrument. This is done by progressively developing aspects of your playing such as co-ordination, control, speed and endurance. You will concentrate specifically on scales, arpeggios, chords and their voicings, developing them to an advanced level for specific styles to solo over complex chord changes.
-
Keyboard Concepts: Keyboard Accompaniment: Versatility equals Gig ability! As a professional keyboard player you will need to be able to play a variety of styles effectively, whether part of a rhythm section or as a solo accompaniment. You will study rhythm, time and feel as well as both cutting edge and classic styles. The styles covered include pop, rock, R&B, fusion, Latin and jazz, as well as some of the less mainstream styles, techniques and vocabulary. You will also examine the prominent players to build a fundamental understanding and historical perspective.
-
Keyboard Concepts: Vocabulary and Improvisation. The conceptual teaching at the core of this class will give you the tools to be totally creative in your own right. You will learn to develop vocabulary, create phrases, and improvise. Studying the improvisational approach and solos of the greats will build a fundamental understanding of each style. It will simultaneously develop your dexterity and co-ordination in any musical situation.
-
General Musicianship: Harmony & Theory: We believe in the practical application of modern harmony and theory – off the page and onto the keyboard. You will study major and minor harmony (scales, chords, modes, arpeggios) and their application to all the key styles.
-
General Musicianship: Aural: For your playing to fit musically, you need to train your ears to hear with great detail and accuracy. You will study the recognition of intervals, chords, arpeggios and harmonic progressions.
-
General Musicianship: Transcribing, Arranging & Composing: Starting by transcribing keyboard, bass and drum parts, you will look at specific arrangements to identify the mechanisms that will enable you to write your own compositions. Transcribing, Arranging and Composing develops stylistically over the three terms and draws directly on both your aural ability and understanding of theory.
-
Sight Reading: Notation: This class covers all the rudiments of sight-reading by breaking music down into pitch (note recognition, intervals, key signatures) and rhythm (note values, rests, time signatures).
-
Sight Reading: Chart Reading: As well as being able to read standard notation, you need to be able to handle charts and make them come alive. The process of deconstructing music at sight is studied in detail so that you very quickly learn to interpret written music into songs and tunes. You will concentrate on structure, sections, signs, dynamics and how to interpret rhythm hits. You will also combine the reading of chord charts with rhythm skills in a variety of styles.
-
Keyboard performance: Rhythm Section Skills: This class is the in-depth study of the interaction within the rhythm section. The lesson includes intensive performance with our top quality instructors, concentrating on the time, feel, groove and techniques of each performed piece. Using materials, concepts and styles studied in other classes we apply them in a pro playing environment.
-
Keyboard performance: Live Performance Workshop + Live Performance Workshop Prep. Your ultimate goal is to be a performer.

Live performances unite students from Keyboard – X and Guitar Hall to build confidence and create that crucial interaction with the rest of the band.

Kiran Roy's Guitar Hall
We have more than a decade of experience in developing and delivering high-quality courses for contemporary guitarists. Guitar Hall has pioneered the teaching methods, curriculum and philosophy that have become the benchmarks for contemporary music education. We pride ourselves on being able to offer modern musicians the kind of rigorous training that conservatoires have offered classical musicians for centuries and our teaching faculty, perhaps our greatest asset, is unrivaled in Mumbai and probably anywhere in India!
The Institute was the first to offer full time programs for students of contemporary music, and we continue to innovate and develop our provision. This unrivaled experience means that our students acquire the techniques to express themselves, the tools to survive in the industry and the ability to continue to grow as their careers develop. And since we want to encourage musicians from all backgrounds and cultures to access our education, we have established a range of Modules and training programs, which are always in great demand and provide a great opportunity for talented and deserving students.
Our students experience more class time, in smaller groups, than other schools, enabling them to effectively benefit from our inspiring and challenging teaching methods. At all times, we are focused on the needs and goals of the individual; as musicians we are all on a personal journey to unlock our potential and here at the Institute, we aim to help you nurture and develop your own unique voice. And this interest and care doesn’t stop once you graduate; we work hard to make sure our alumni continue to benefit from the many opportunities that come our way.
We till this date continue the rich heritage of our guitar teaching and guitar training courses that began many years ago.
