philw Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 All, In a somewhat post horse bolting attempt to add some knowledge and structure to my often near random note choices, I've been wondering about taking one of the Berklee bass courses (www.berkleemusic.co.uk/). The jazz one appeals. Any opinions to share? Worth the money or just a waste of it (it'd buy quite a few one-to-one lessons). Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velvetkevorkian Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 You mean [url="http://www.berkleemusic.com/school/course?course_item_id=10107337&program=bass"]this one[/url]? I remember looking at the Berklee courses and thinking they were seriously overpriced compared to the ones offered on [url="https://www.musicdojo.com/courses/catalog.asp"]Music Dojo[/url], which I've been meaning to try for a while. I haven't actually used either but the syllabus looks much the same- I couldn't see any reason for Berklee to be charging almost a thousand dollars while the Music Dojo courses are about $50?

Alun Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 [url="http://www.learnthelowend.com"]Learn The Low End[/url] is also worth a look. Music Dojo, as mentioned above, have a geat reputation ( I think they do a free "basic" course to see if you like it too). Cheers Alun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Music Dojo looks great to me, I've also been thinking about it for a while. Adam Nitti is a top bloke and a great teacher, I'm sure Music Dojo would be a more value for money option, and worth a punt, because you won't loose a fortune if it doesn't float your boat.

Eight Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) I'm in two minds about this one - but I've done the odd course from www.musicianuniversity.com and they weren't too bad all things considered. I wouldn't 100% recommend them, but I will 100% recommend you at least pay the site a visit. Edited December 14, 2009 by Eight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
