OnlineConservatory.com
is redefining the way music is taught and played, by hosting
live lessons over the Internet.
How it works: A businessman in Istanbul, Turkey, for example,
wants to take jazz piano lessons. He finds and hires a professional
musician in New Orleans via OnlineConservatory.com. During the
lesson, the student and teacher are able to speak with each
other, listen to musical performances, and view what notes are
being played on the keyboard via their computer screens.
Not only has the Internet company's unique service captured
the attention of venerable media institutions such as the Wall
Street Journal and CNN since its inception in January, it has
attracted a diverse teacher and student population interested
in music genres from classical to country. The company plans
to expand its current repertoire of lessons from piano to guitar,
woodwinds, and brass instruments in the near future.
Music is truly the international language, capable of
breaking down all barriers, says Ed Clarke, director of
marketing, OnlineConservatory.com. The Internet, too,
is a powerful medium, transcending both physical and virtual
boundaries. OnlineConservatory.com marries these two media
in the most compelling manner for both student and teacher.
