Teaching Philosophy
Baron School of Music is committed to breaking through the inherent mode of separating popular music and classical music in traditional music education. We aim to provide a platform for popular and classical music to have a sharable play area and cultivating a new generation of all-around musicians.
We deeply believe that “classical music” will provide comprehensive training of knowledge and ability and it will be beneficial for students in the long-term development. A systematic “music theory” allows students to have a deep understanding of the language form of music, plus the indispensable “ear training” to build up a solid foundation of music. If students can flexibly integrate these musical concepts, they will not only enhance their performance on stage but also create unlimited possibilities in the changeable and free-ranging of “pop music”.
We truly believe in addition to musical training in the curriculum, students can achieve a comprehensive improvement of musical skills by participated in music activities on different platforms and cooperation opportunities between students. We’re not only providing more exchanges and internships for students from different musical backgrounds, but also they will meet musicians from different music genres and departments. This will lead our students to a more successful musical path, no matter they are classical music or popular music, stage front or behind the scene, and broaden their musical horizons.
