Blog post written by Samantha Coates” called “My Spanish Sound Scape.”
Samantha graciously shares the nuts and bolts of how she planned her studio-wide theme inspired by Spanish music. I admire the depth of detail she spent organizing a comprehensive theme that develops sight-reading, theory knowledge and improvisation. I appreciate ALL the lists and links to music that she includes, too. It’s a post definitely worth your time and a theme worth considering in your studio!
I use the app to develop scale playing, playing by ear, and improvising all in under a minute! This app along with 4 other must-have tools were included in a past newsletter—the one that Maggie read.

Get on the 8+8 Composium Waitlist
8+8 Composium is your opportunity to develop your composition skills in a friendly group setting with fellow teachers and pianists.
The goal
to help you unlock your musical voice within clear boundaries in a community of trust so that you are equipped to teach others how to compose.
The premise
Boundaries prevent decision fatigue and provide a safety net. When boundaries are explored and eventually crossed, creativity breaks free!
The setting
This unique, online class environment is limited to 8 per class and invites you to sandbox ideas, work alongside others and coach each other in the creative process.
The registration
I’m pleased to announce that two full classes are in session now and I plan to hold more later this year or early 2022. If this opportunity sounds good to you, make sure to get your name on the waitlist!
Hey, I appreciate you!
Thanks to you, Podbean (the platform I use to host my podcast) awarded me this badge.
