aboutMe
Hello there! I'm Ben Spooner, a musician, javascript enthusiast and technical support engineer at Neat. My journey into the tech world was anything but conventional. After a successful 15-year tenure as a business owner providing music and audio services, I embarked on a new adventure in web development.

Beginner To Composer...
in 14 days
Beginner To Composer In 14 Days is delightfully different. Moving swiftly from theory to action, Ben emerges as the teacher you always wished you'd had, championing radical creative freedom, improvisation and composition - even for beginners. Especially for beginners in fact. "Students need freedom to truly fall in love with their instrument" he writes, "frameworks that pique their curiosity over and over again so that practice becomes play". Whether you're a complete beginner or have a little knowledge up your sleeve, you'll adore this dynamic and intimate guide to learning the piano, peppered with evocative vignettes of a life lived with music at its heart. Best of all, you'll come away with a method you can use time and time again to create your very own music, captured on professional quality lead sheets you can share with other musicians, to bring your work to life. Suitable for adults and a useful resource for teachers. Complements graded and traditional approaches to learning.
