At JGM the goal is to train truly independent musicians. Through a holistic student centered approach all parts of the musician are nurtured.
This type of independence empowers students to be successful in school ensembles, extra-curricular musical activities, and competitive audition processes. Whether you are a Church Musician, School Student, or just enjoy doing Music, JGM gives you the tools you need to be successful.
Music is everywhere. We all engage with it in our lives. Take the opportunity to experience it at a deeper level.
What is a melody? A melody has rhythm and a melody has pitches (tonal). Both of these are necessary skills to fully grasp any melody that we want to perform.
Have you ever tried to play an instrument but just could not get the sound that you wanted? Was it out of tune? Was it scratchy? Technique is how you get that beautiful sound that you have been searching for.
Have you ever tried to sing/play an instrument with someone? Harmony is how we learn do music with others. Harmony puts your individual sound in the context of a shared sound.
