Cadenza

Cadenza is a block theme for music schools, conservatoire prep studios and private teachers of piano, guitar, voice, violin, theory and production. It looks like a printed concert programme: ivory paper, ink black, brass rules and burgundy accents, headings in Bodoni Moda with small-caps kickers, five thin staff lines as dividers and section backgrounds, and plenty of white space.

What is built in (no plugins needed):

• Lessons, teachers, instruments and levels: lesson pages with the programme of start dates (date in small caps, title in italics, dotted leaders to the price), curriculum, teachers, reviews, questions, venue map and an enquiry form; teacher profiles with instrument tags; a lesson catalog with filters by instrument, level and format.
• Signature sections: the grade ladder (Beginner to Advanced), a "programme" of upcoming lessons, a recital spotlight, teacher profiles, the practice tips journal.
• Forms: trial lesson request (instrument, age, level, preferred days), contact, lesson advice and the monthly letter. Messages are stored in wp-admin → Messages and emailed to you.
• Heroes: music-room cover with a programme card, the staff-line hero with rising notes and a lesson finder, a background video, the trial lesson split hero and the recital spotlight, plus the latest practice note.
• Galleries (masonry and carousel with a lightbox), a recital film, quotes, numbers, venue marquee, FAQ and full pages: Home, Landing, About, Contact, Trial lesson and Recitals.
• Light and dark schemes with a switch in the header, and four style variations: Ivory, Concert hall (dark), Jazz club and Nocturne.
• Gentle entrance animations that respect reduced-motion settings.
• A demo import (Appearance → Import demo): seven lessons, five teachers, six instruments, grade levels, pages and a menu.

Secure Custom Fields is recommended for editing course prices, curricula, start dates and teacher profiles; everything displays without it.
