Welcome
Classycool
Music is a small enterprise dedicated to helping songwriters,
singers, musicians and composers climb the greasy pole that is the
music business. Some of our services are listed below. We
are located close to Barnard Castle in the Durham Dales of Northern
England and specialize in low budget (digital and CD) music
production, tuition, coaching and if required, internet
marketing. We have expertise in classical, jazz and most high
quality 'pop' and 'rock' music but we strictly avoid genres
featuring explicit lyrics with violent or pornographic references.
Please contact us via the contact page
for more details.

Training courses and lessons are available within
our small academy, for instance piano, keyboard skills, singing and
music theatre. Learn to use music software and hardware. We also
teach web development using using Microsoft Expression Web design
tools and also use of Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Flash programs.

Rhapsody for Utøya
A retro (alla Warsaw Concerto) rhapsodic tribute to 77 wasted lives. I watched a T.V. report
showing how this murderer is being given 5 star treatment
and 'human rights' in the 'prison' prior to his trial. I
wrote this music the same day (14th April 2012) There is no
real anger in the music, (I don't really do musical anger)
but there is passion, sadness and frustration... but then
there is also joy in the hope of eternal justice and
resurrection.
The music does not
in any way reflect the diabolical scenes on that day.
(Mel Stallwood)

Stallwood has also released his solo piano CD ‘Piano
for a Blue World’ The CD contains 4 originals plus 11 of
the most beautiful romantic classics ever written. Composers include
Chopin, Liszt and Debussy.
The album’s mood is sadly reflective, romantic and nostalgic but
ultimately relaxing, deeply sensuous, like a long soak in the bath.
'Physical' CD's are available for post on our sales page
