How we choose repertoire

Balancing pieces they love, pieces that stretch, and pieces that teach.

By Tanwa Saien · Classical guitar

Sheet music, orange flowers and a string instrument

Each term, students get three kinds of pieces so enjoyment and progress go together.

One they love

Students can suggest it; the teacher arranges it to suit their level.

One that stretches

A little beyond where they are now.

One that teaches

Focused on one skill — playing softly, or shifting hand position.

Not sure where to start? A trial lesson will tell us both.
