    AIM
    To study music at AIM is all about having a fun, professional, academic experience, that helps set you up for a diverse lifelong career in the music industry, from performing to studio work, teaching, publishing, entertainment management, music business and a whole lot more, all connected as part of the AIM learning experience.
    The best thing you can from here do is to come along to an OPEN Day or check out our website at www.aim.edu.au
    Available in Sydney & Melbourne
    The Bachelor of Music (Contemporary) is AIM's most popular course, offering students a rich diversity of performance & theoretical experiences & helping students develop their skills as performing musicians.
    Major Studies
    Combines individual lessons and master classes. Master classes are divided into instrumental groupings: Guitar, Keyboard, Woodwind, Brass, Vocal, Bass and Drums / Percussion.
    Performance Studies
    This unit investigates specific genres of music within a rich collection of styles designed to inform and enhance the student’s performance skills.
    Concert Practice
    This is the practical component. Students workshop and perform the genres examined in the Performance Studies lectures in a concert environment.
    Genre Studies include:
    Twentieth Century Contemporary Blues and Rock, Rhythm and Blues, Soul and Funk, Jazz Standards, Australian Rock and Pop from 1958 to the present, World Music - West African, Afro-Cuban and Latin styles and the Contemporary Performance Artist.
    Ensemble
    In a small group setting, teamwork skills are developed as individual performance is focused on awareness, preparation, and commitment to common goals, culminating in a live performance at a significant music venue.
    Academic Studies
    All Bachelor of Music students undertake a series of Academic Studies units. These units cover theoretical and aural musicianship as well as historical and cultural studies of music. In the Foundation stages (1-2) of the degree, students cover a broad range of music styles and genres, including western art music and contemporary popular music. In the Industry stages (3-6) of the degree, students are able to focus their critical thinking in a variety of specialist areas including contemporary, jazz, baroque, classical, romantic, avant garde, music theatre, film, roots music, world music and latin music.
    Associated Studies (Electives)

      Strongly disagree, Ella's one is a true gem that respects Johnny Mercer's lyrics and story, she kept it as optimistic and joyfull as it should be. I love Rai... but here he's too much into reharmonization and melancholia, a ballad does not necessarily have to be sad, Johnny Mercer has proven countless of times it could be fun ! Sure the reharm is top notch, but... does not fit the story.

    • @Radiatoron88
      @Radiatoron88 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree about the beauty of this wonderful performance, but I laughed at your word choice of "geezer." As an American, the word "geezer" doesn't really have an appealing connotation. We usually think of some old guy in his later years, as likely as not to be walking around with a cane, very possibly grumpy and grumbling about this or that. Very much not the image of a vibrant musician like Rai!

    I thought the same thing ... first thought came was Chet Baker . Ha! ... and also, Nicola Tesla on the piano!! But here's the defining thing about vocalists if they are going to have a say and that is:
    #1. Can they play an instrument AND sing - and this guy does ... and well
    #2. Do they sing in tune - I mean spot on - and this guy does.
