Music Theory and Composition Lessons in The Hague

Hello! I am Nuno Torres Marques, composer and musician in The Hague. Do you wish to know more about the backgrounds of music? How a songwriter or composer works and what tools are used when writing a piece of music? Learn more about composition, making arrangements, music theory, harmony at the piano:?

Musical Grammar

Insight and knowledge of music theory also give you guidance in your interpretation of the music you play. Of course knowledge of music theory is indispensable when you compose music. Complicated and difficult? You can think of it as grammar, which helps you better understand the language (music).

Composition and Arrangements

My lessons offer detailed information and insights on music theory, composition and arranging. Useful tools if you wish to give a voice to your musical ideas! Learn to write your own tunes for several instrumentations, e.g.: strings, woodwinds, brasses, percussion, jazz, pop/rock or various combinations.

Harmony and Melody

By learning chords and harmonic functions, you gain insight and guidance in building melodies and solos. So you learn a basis to improvise more interesting solos, if you want to play jazz for example.

Music Theory - Harmony at the Piano

It is ideal if you have a piano or keyboard, so that you can see and hear how things work in real life. We use Keyboard Voicings, Microjazz (R&B, pop) and/or Jazz Hanon (Chord-Melody) , Harmony (chords, scales, tonalities, progressions, modulations, rhythms, time signatures, circle of fifths, etc.)

CD - Online Audio option

These methods above also have a CD or online audio option (play along), so you can practice and play at home too.
