Carswell Music Studios Inc. Is a music teaching and production franchise, which was incorporated in June of 1990. It is an affiliation of music performers and educators who work independently as self-employed teachers of the studio. Mr. James A. Carswell is the president and founder of this enterprise.
Mr. Carswell graduated with his Bachelor of Music Degree from the University of Toronto in 1978, majoring in voice, piano and composition. He continued his studies to achieve an A.R.C.T. In piano performance from the Royal Conservatory of Toronto, as well as a degree in Education and an Ontario Teacher's Certificate in 1979. He has received several Arts and Letters awards in musical composition. He also studied many years with famous piano teacher, the late Gordon Hallett, and Stratford Musical Theatre coach, John Coveart, also affiliated with the Faculty of Music at the University of Toronto. He credits his iron-clad expertise very much to the major influences of these dedicated, talented, tough, and inspirational icons.
At Carswell Studios, we approach music from the standpoint of exploration and structure. Learning how to understand how music is put together enables us to perform better. What, in a nutshell, sets Carswell Studios apart from other teaching enterprises? Even as our students have fun playing and improvising, we do not compromise technical and artistic expertise! Our curriculum still very closely parallels the technical guidelines of the Royal Conservatory of Toronto. Our students try Royal Conservatory examinations and many receive first class honours.
Carswell provides a warm and friendly, home cooked teaching product to a number of families involved throughout the Greater Metro Toronto and surrounding areas. Carswell Studios have achieved a happy median - a balance between achievement and enjoyment.
We charge a very low registration fee which enables our students to play in two excellent recitals each year, as well as participate in at least two workshops which enhance our students' performance skills.
Jim personally runs a number of workshops for our students to give them confidence and to hone their skills. This is preparation for auditions, recitals and concerts that students do twice a year as part of our curriculum.
You can contact us at studio@carswellmusic.com or by calling the studio at (905)803-9026. Call soon to ensure your spot for after Christmas for the new teaching year. Wouldn't a gift of music lessons make an excellent present?
