Music online courses


Today I bring a different point of view of music, which is, the teaching and learning. Many people tend to think that everyone can just grab a guitar, get together with some friends and have a go at music. But being able to play well an instrument and compose a beautiful tune is more than that. You need to be properly trained and to know the fundamentals of music theory.
However, not everyone has the time or money to attend to an university and get their college degree. In response to this, many universities have develop online classes so as to allow this people to get a good education. This courses are less expensive and allow you to administrate your time as you like.
Here you can find three sites that may make it easier for you to find a course that suits to your needs:



- distance-education.org offers degrees in many fields related to music. This are:
K-12 Music teacher
Music director
Composer
Musical historian
Researcher
Instrument designer
Piano tuner
Band/choir director
Musicologis
 So, if you are interested in working in the music field and need a degree which you can obtaing fast, this is a great option.

- elearners.com is another website with a big data base covering different areas, including music. Here you will find a large list of prestigious universities offering courses and degrees related to music.

- As far as specific universities are concerned, one of the most prestigious is The Boston University School of Music, established in 1872. It has been pioneer in music education in the United States and has produced some of the world's greatest musical minds. Some years ago they have added the possibility to get their degrees by online courses. I have found great reviews and therefore I give you the link:
