classical piano lessons
With an emphasis on note reading, finger technique, and musicianship, students will develop a strong foundation of advanced piano skills.
music theory and technique
Major and minor scales, intervals, and chords are the building blocks of classical piano music. Practicing scales and chords in increasing levels of difficulty is fun and leads to good execution of difficult passages in many piano pieces.
musical styles
All music is good music! While learning traditional classical music, students can also explore other styles such as pop, folk, and jazz.
