Fun and engaging music theory lessons online or in your own home

My name is Blake and I retired almost 2 years ago aged 65 and decided I would give myself the challenge of learning the saxophone and was put in touch with Josh through contacts at the University of Southampton. I started lessons with Josh basically the day I retired and have been tutored by him every week since. I have never played a musical instrument before and have found it very difficult starting from ‘scratch’ but with Josh’s calm but firm approach, I feel I am progressing well. We have worked our way through about three quarters of the Abracadabra Saxophone book, including Grade 1, 2 and some of 3 scales and arpeggios with the last pieces of music being ‘Greensleeves’, ‘Amazing Grace’, ‘Hello Dolly’, ‘Swing Low’ and ‘Yesterday’.
I feel without Josh’s patient tuition, I would not have progressed from knowing nothing about music to now being able to read music and apply the correct breathing techniques i.e. how to breath, how to control my breathing, where to breath and also importantly how to understand rhythm with dynamics including even a bit of swing.
I would personally recommend him to anybody wishing to learn the saxophone.

Josh was very friendly and made me feel at ease, which was great given it was my first time ever holding a sax! He talks you through everything in a logical and easy to understand manner. Would definitely recommend.
