- Will I have the same applied teacher throughout my experience at NPWI?
-
In most cases, yes; however, it is the desire of the NPWI faculty that the student take lessons with several applied teachers to gain different perspectives.
- How long is an applied lesson?
-
Lessons are 30 minutes once a week.
- Can I take more than one applied lesson?
-
Yes. Many students take additional lessons to improve their technical skills. Some students add a lesson in the same discipline, 1 hour a week, while others take two 30-minute lessons in different disciplines. An additional lesson is included in the curriculum at no extra charge.
- What type of music do I study?
-
Instructors choose songs that challenge and work on a student’s skill level. Although the main content of literature centers around praise and worship, instructors may consider helping with scheduled performances, different styles, or advanced skill sets in classical or jazz.
