Online Music Theory Lessons with Robert Boer: Mastery Beyond the Gradebook

Now accepting students for Live 1-on-1 Video Mentorship sessions via High-Definition Audio/Video.

A Personal Approach to the Language of Music

For over 35 years, I have viewed music theory not as a set of rules to be memorized, but as a living language to be spoken. When you engage in online music theory with Robert Boer, you aren't just preparing for an exam; you are entering a mentorship designed to elevate your entire musical perspective.

My studio is built on the belief that theory is most powerful when it is applied directly to the instrument. Whether we are analyzing a Bach fugue or a contemporary jazz progression, we look for the "musical heartbeat" behind the notation.

Bridging the Gap to Conservatory Standards through Online Music Theory Lessons with Robert Boer

Transitioning from a student to a scholar requires more than just reading a textbook. My 1-on-1 online mentorship provides:

• Real-Time Collaborative Analysis: We don’t just look at scores; we analyze them together in a live virtual classroom where you can ask questions and get instant answers.

• Synchronous Ear Training: Unlike apps, I provide live feedback for your aural tests, adjusting the difficulty in the moment based on your response.

• Instant Technical Correction: During our live video link, I can see your notation and hear your singing or playing instantly, correcting errors before they become habits.

Specialized Exam & College Preparation

ABRSM & Trinity Grade 1–8 and Diplomas

Achieving a Distinction in ABRSM or Trinity Music Theory requires a granular understanding of Western notation, score analysis, and harmonic completion. I provide the technical tools and marking-scheme insights needed for students to pursue further higher educational and creative opportunities.

Music Theory College-Level & Conservatory Entrance Prep

For those pursuing a career in music, I offer intensive preparation for entrance exams. We cover the high-level topics required for elite institutions:

• Compositional Techniques: String quartet writing, piano accompaniment, and part writing.

• Advanced Analysis: From modulation and borrowed chords to full-score harmonic analysis.

• Solfège & Aural Skills: Developing the "inner ear" to hear the music before it is played.

Your Virtual Front-Row Seat

"My studio is equipped with professional-grade microphones and multi-cam setups to ensure that our live online music theory sessions feel as intimate and clear as if we were in the same room. All you need is a stable internet connection and your passion for music; I provide the digital workspace and the 35 years of expertise."
