Ludwig struggles to keep up with Maestro Wolfie’s dictation - not even a baby on his hip can slow Mozart down 😏🥰

“Hurry up Ludwig, I haven’t got all day - this score won’t write itself!”

Classical music’s hottest DILF 😎

As of February 2025, I'm opening a private music lesson studio! I'm offering both in-person lessons for the NYC area, as well as virtual lessons!

Looking to learn piano, voice or saxophone? Want to brush up on your music theory, or have a second set of eyes look over a score you've written? Check out what I've got to offer at https://amhstudio.carrd.co!

I know music lessons can be prohibitively expensive for a lot of people, so I'm keeping prices at $50/hour (which in my experience is 2011 prices). Scheduling is flexible, and there's no need to commit to more than one lesson at a time if that's all you can spare. Money is tighter than ever for most people, but music shouldn't be something only the rich can afford.

if you are a tumblr user that thinks rock and roll is only queen, david bowie, metallica, and green day i am desperately begging you to let me help expand your knowledge

i was taking a uquiz and one of the questions asked what your favorite music genre was and one of the options was genuinely "rock: queen, david bowie, metallica, green day, etc" and i could not believe that had to be my answer

Patreon Commissions & Membership Open!

Patreon can be found here.

I am currently a college student and as with many people on here, writing is everything to me. I am employed as a professional script writer through a local entertainment/video game company as well as a music teacher and am looking to expand my horizons (and pay off my degree lol). To get started, I am taking commissions for ANYTHING for 5 dollars and have opened a $3/month Patreon membership! There's no word limit, plot exceptions, nothing. If you happen to join the membership, I'm also taking free commissions from members to get started for a month!

If perhaps you're looking for help with learning an instrument (Guitar, Bass, Piano, and Viola), any commission for help is also available at $5 dollars or via membership! I am mainly looking to expand my page so that when I do get to publishing the story I am working on (will be out by next year), it's not falling on deaf ears. Please help a current debt-grower out 😭😭

Music exercises – course at three hours

Rather long time, there were no news about music exercises. By different reasons. First of all, there were no nothing positive. There was no positive movement. So, for some time, it was all time, with some minimum level. Very low. Even to write about it. And even more - to play something. Even, if this something, it is something really stupid. So, it was no some positive result. So, I, even, start to think, that music things are going rather – like a dead end.

Well, I think, it was really like this. Anyway, I will continue, even in this case, but with so minimal steps – very small result can be achieved.

Some kind of miracle does not happens. But, well, something musical is happened. And positive. And there is something to write about. So, even today, I still do not have a music skills for a simple things. Yes, it is stable, same. And some goals, lets say, for a year ago. Something start to play. Still in category of just a dreams. This is stay at that place, as it was.

But. Some thing I receive. As, I can say, it is, already, about something. So, I start, with something little negative, you know. So, at last, about music exercises. I can to play bass guitar for three hours. During one day. And half of an hour in a second day. And by hour I spent on electro guitar and hour on synthesizer. So, this is my main result!

So, right now, I understand, that music - it is skills. Fantasies – it is very good. It is a things, you need. But, also it requires a skills. So, for some time, I think about music as a some kind of magic. Or, I cannot to solve this puzzle into my head, about what music is. Music - it is fantasies and skills. Fantasies, it is good and right direction. It is a level of a music listener, dreamer. It is ok. But next, you need a skills. Skills to play guitar, synthesizer, bass guitar. For example. Some exercises. Melodies and rhymes. This is a music for me, how I get it now.

OF course, music it is not a first things, music does not have a priority, it is not primary, in casual life. And, it is simply, a point of interest. So, it is good to have a regular interest. From another hand. Lots of us, like to listen something. So, let it be, in middle case, some rock music. There are lots of musicians in this genre. And from this point, you get a regular interest.

Positive side, it is goes, things goes, even if - it is not well correct absolutely, so-so things, and slow. And, anyway, it is not enough. Even, for a simple things. But, something, starts to be better in this plan. So, first of all, I add much more time to play music instruments. It is most valuable thing.

With bass guitar, one day, I start some exercises. Which I find in internet. Simple. Well, you know, just to pull strings. Later, some tracks, that I like, during that time. It is something from Sisters of Mercy. Very cool gothic band. And, also, few rhymes from songs, which are simply from few notes. And, for example, how simple bass guitar can be. So, right now, I can write this, at least.

About electro guitar. It is, again, about chords, and, I try to remember chords and try to exchange chords, one to another. And one track. Hawkwind. It is loud such a rock. Space, I call it space music.

By synthesizers. It is one music exercise, and chords. Once again, chords. It is valuable thing. And, first two pages from book “To Music with a Joy”. So, this is achievement.

It is about, what I try to do. It does not mean I do it good! Once again. Not enough time, I put into these. It is good, as I get, it lots of time everyday to put in playing music. Then it will be a big results. So, I have results like these now. So, in such state. About to my own tracks, I can say this is not a time to speak about my own tracks, in this case. So, right now, I need to get to absorb a thing I call musicality, musicalismus, musical, music skill. It is fantasies and music skills. There are fantasies. And there are no skills. So, these things, I am doing now!

So, this is my phase, I start to understand it better. And, I call it, as a course at three hours. Because of, it is my first achievement. With bass guitar, I played for three hours. It does not matter, what, certain things, I play. Course 1 hour at electro guitar and synthesizer. And plus half of an hour for bass guitar at second day. So, such results for now. I need to get some musicality, musicalismus, musical, music skills.

I am often asked what advice I have for aspiring bassists… The two most important recommendations I can make are to practice diligently and listen carefully. 

It is also essential to practice with a purpose in mind. Your practice time should not be spent on “noodling.” Know what you are working on and focus on that. If you aren’t sure where to start, chords are always a good choice. Get a solid grasp on your chords so you can understand how your notes will fit in with the notes of others. Listen to the music you want to play and study it with this in mind. 

When you land your first gig, leave your ego at home and bring a second set of ears to the gig. Make sure you know the form and keys of the songs you’ll be playing. Know when to stop soloing, read the room. Dress your best so you feel your best and get in the right mindset. And remember, every gig is an opportunity to learn.

My complete roadmap for bassists looking to take the stage is in my Ron Carter Library under the title “Blueprint for the Working Jazz Bassist.” For those of you not quite there yet, “Comprehensive Bass Method” will be the place to start. There’s much more to explore, however, including my online masterclasses with Open Studio and tonebase… I invite you to explore what I have to offer on my website,  www dot Ron Carter Jazz dot com.

Music and dance play an essential role in early childhood development, offering a fun and interactive way for children to learn and grow. Children are exposed to creative activities that stimulate their minds and bodies. As a leading daycare in Edmonton, Canada, we understand how important it is for children to engage in these art forms, helping them develop motor skills, coordination, and social interaction from an early age.

Electro guitar – as audiocassette T90

So, I dream for a long time to have a time to learn music. Well, even if it will be a little. With my electro guitar, I am learning chord game. And, play about 90 minutes a week. It is absolutely not enough. But well, it is something. And, so, for interest, I want to compare with audio cassette. About 90 minutes. If this kind ever exists.

For interest. No meaning behind. Simply, for interest and visual look. Saying a word, like a some magic audio cassette T90. With beautiful visual look. Well, model, let it be this way. Such a musical compassion. From a musical listener. Which take a decision to learn some music.

I play chords. To remember them. You need to be trained with chords. And it will be already a simple chord play. This is my goal. To learn how to play with chords. With rhythm 120. Count at 4. It is ok to be slower. And always with metronome. Without it I cannot do it.

 Chords, already, give simple music. Any genre. Acoustic, rock. Noise rock, for example. And to this deal -add some lyrics. And, it will be, already, first song. Real first song. Which is played and singed. Rhythm, chords. This way I look.

And, electro guitar has whole 6 strings. A lot, don’t it? But, they are not thick. And it is easy to push a string, after bass guitar. It is, already, a little thing. But, anyway, chords – it is practice, practice and again practice. I find in the network a little picture with 12 typical chords. And, I learn it. Well, will it be one day, a day, when I will do my songs. It is so amazing, even for me. I will be surprised by myself.

And, with these things it is ok to play noise loud rock with chords. And compose, compose. At least, now, I think so!
