What's Brainarm?

Brainarm is a cutting-edge ONLINE coaching for anyone
who is older than 4, whether they are musicians or
musically uneducated
.

Brainarm allows EVERYONE to compose music straightaway
without the need for any music lessons at all
.

Brainarm also works well with those
who are TONE-DEAF 
or think themselves as UNTALENTED
and it does even with people who have DISABILITIES!

Talent, ear and music knowledge are not needed at all, 
as they will be entirely provided by a "human interface", who is
an experienced pianist-composer-coach 
(no Artificial Intelligence...) 
"lending" his hands, music expertise and knowledge to you,
but without influencing your artistic choices

Brainarm Full Compositional Coaching is a new concept
through which EVERYONE
become aware of the fact that they have great music inside,
which can be expressed straight away
and in an incredibly easy way thanks to free improvisation and reasoning
mediated by a COMPOSER-COACH.

 

 Simone Carannante trying out Brainarm in 2019

 

"Since 2009 more than one hundred people have tried Brainarm. They had different backgrounds, education, culture, age and musical abilities. This number includes children as well as adults, most of which were not musically educated.

100% of them were successful and many had their music performed in public and acclaimed!

At present 47 manuscripts are ready and 35 people have composed at least one piece."



Because Brainarm allows high-level expression and your truest music materialises before your eyes without effort, it can improve your self-esteem and self-confidence, as well as helping with releasing emotions. 

The music so composed can then be written, performed and recorded by our professionals for ONLINE DISTRIBUTION on the major platforms (iTunes, Spotify, etc.)

Some brainarmers after the premiere of their music at
Accademia Professionale di Musica in 2012, 

Guess what happens to your self-esteem when you thought you were not musical at all or have just little talent but suddenly you discover to have music within, and a concert pianist plays it in front of an audience...


What are the benefits of Brainarm?

 

 

FOR MUSICIANS AND NON-MUSICIANS (including those with DISABILITIES)

 

  • Brainarm gives you access to the high-level composition without the need for any lessons (ideal for those who DO NOT HAVE TIME, are INCONSTANT or TOO LAZY TO PRACTISE an instrument)
  • If you already compose, it brings your music to another level by refining your style and expanding your musical language
  • Brainarm can improve MOOD, STRESS RESISTANCE and MENTAL SKILLS through high-level music composition
  • If you suffer from BRAIN INJURY, a MENTAL DISABILITY or a PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITION you can benefit from Brainarm; in fact, it is proven music making and creative expression improve COGNITIVE FUNCTIONING (such as concentration and memory), COMMUNICATION and SOCIAL SKILLS; yes, composition plays a considerable role in RECOVERY and REHABILITATION, and that is especially true when music comes from the inner self; also, Brainarm can ease INTERPERSONAL SKILLS since it creates a special link between the person and your Brainarm coach (because the first is the brains and the latter the hands)
  • While immediately making people aware of your immense potential, Brainarm can boost SELF-ESTEEM, also easing SELF-KNOWLEDGE and EMOTIONAL BALANCE, bringing back memories that can be extremely helpful to those undertaking psychotherapy
  • Brainarm stimulates THE BRAIN OF THE ELDERLY, maintaining their brain functions
  • Brainarm can help LEARN/REVIEW THEORY WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT and in a painless way, as well as create the context to introduce advanced musical concepts
  • Music is then PUBLISHED and DISTRIBUTED ONLINE to be heard from all over the world; it can also be sent to our international team of PIANISTS for PUBLIC PERFORMANCE.

 

 

FOR PIANIST-COMPOSERS

 

  • Pianist-composers who teach piano can INCREASE STUDENT RETENTION preventing one student out of 5 from quitting their lessons soon after start (in some countries, however, this rate can be higher); they can also EXTEND THEIR LESSON time by employing Brainarm, leading to a HIGHER INCOME
  • Brainarm also provides a NEW JOB FOR COMPOSERS (Brainarm coach) and gives a unique kind of VISIBILITY to PIANISTS, MUSIC COPYISTS, ARRANGERS, ENSEMBLES, ORCHESTRA CONDUCTORS and other professionals partnering with us. If you are interested in a collaboration GET IN TOUCH NOW.

 

 

FOR THE INSTITUTIONS, FOR THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, AND FOR CULTURE

 

  • In the long run, as a consequence of the popularisation of music composition, Brainarm can lead to a possible CASCADE EFFECT ON THE MUSIC INDUSTRY in general (including INCREASED DEMAND FOR MUSIC LESSONS)
  • If applied on a large scale and for a sufficient amount of time, Brainarm can IMPROVE THE GENERAL WELL-BEING OF PEOPLE (including those with a disability), which can have a POSITIVE FINANCIAL IMPACT ON NATIONAL HEALTH INSTITUTIONS as well as on PEOPLE'S PRODUCTIVITY in general
  • Brainarm EDUCATES THE AUDIENCES ABOUT MUSIC and prepares the next generation of GOOD-QUALITY LISTENERS for classical music concerts.

our Values

 

We respect your musical style and taste, regardless of our personal preferences, not influencing your artistic choices at all.

We believe in Ethics and aim to deliver Top-Quality and Excellence.

We definitely and stubbornly have a Can-Do, AIP (All Is Possible) and CID (Consider It Done!) approach.

 

 

and Vision

We foresee the time when everyone on earth will get access to music composition. We call it “Music Singularity” and expect it to happen by 2030. At that time, there will be no surprise to hear that our old neighbour with no musical experience, tone-deaf and suffering from a disability, has composed the 1st movement of a sonata.


(read our ART MANIFESTO)


Our Awareness and Expertise

Everyone has music inside and it can be expressed straight away without the need for music lessons, just by means of a "human interface", a pianist-composer acting as a coach. The method that allows people to compose great music without any previous experience with music is called Full Compositional Coaching, and we can proudly say that Brainarm is the first and currently the only Full Compositional Coaching service on earth.
