Consonus Music Institute’s Director of Curriculum Mike Christiansen will be presenting a workshop in conjunction with the 2013 Nevada Music Educators Association annual conference in Las Vegas Nevada on Friday, April 13th 2013. The workshop titled “What Every Guitar Student Needs to Know” will provide an overview of the key skills and knowledge base that forms the core of a well structured classroom guitar curriculum. Mike will also take attendees through the Consonus Music Institute’s Guitar Fundamentals blended learning curriculum which was authored by Christiansen.

"The level of accomplishment of the class has certainly increased since I began using CMI's classroom guitar material."

Richard Langham Chaparral Middle School

"I am an experienced guitar player, and yet CMI has provided me with a valuable resource in my beginning classroom guitar class. The sequence of concepts, structure of lessons, and choices of music are all well thought out, and the engaging blended learning platform allows me to provide more individual and small group support."

Richard Langham Chaparral Middle School

"I love how Consonus classroom guitar curriculum starts with tablature and incorporates chords from the beginning. The way the tablature incorporates aspects of standard notation, making that a little less scary when we get to it about halfway through the book."

Kelley Neudecker Fulton High School

"As a brass player and band teacher who has been asked to teach classroom guitar this curriculum is a life saver. Using video instruction to demonstrate guitar techniques and musical examples allows me to put my focus on helping the student’s with their performance."
