Your instructor is Jonathan Coopersmith, Chair of the Curtis Institute Music Studies Department. He has conducted the Philadelphia Orchestra Society, Westminster Conservatory Orchestra, Wilmington Orchestra, University of Pennsylvania Wind Ensemble, and Penn’s Landing Orchestra. Jonathan is an engaging teacher who can effectively simplify complex topics across a wide variety of instruments and genres.

No matter what genre of music you study, music theory is an invaluable tool that provides the additional vocabulary to speak the language of music more fluently and effectively. We designed this new video offering to add real world value for our students. Most ArtistWorks members will benefit from a basic, solid grounding in music theory while others will take advantage of higher-level lessons on classical music theory.

“The benefits of knowing more about music theory include greater enjoyment and fulfillment when playing, more choices for phrasing and interpretation, a bigger repertoire of chords, more choices when soloing or improvising, better understanding about what you like or don’t like about a piece of music and a knowledge and vocabulary to talk to other musicians.”  
- Jonathan Coopersmith, Chair of the Curtis Institute Music Studies Department and ArtistWorks Music Theory Instructor

“What an amazing benefit of a subscription to ArtistWorks.  How rare to get a bonus like this. Thank you!”
- BarbS, ArtistWorks Member, Currently Enrolled in Piano School with Christie Peery

Remember, this course does NOT include the video exchange feature. Over time we will add quizzes and Music Theory certification badges for your profile, but for now we just wanted to get you this useful musical knowledge!
