Lessons
Report
Group piano provides a leisurely way to learn piano in a relaxed, social environment. Our philosophy is that anyone, regardless of age, musical background, or talent can learn music in a fun, relaxed, and pressure-free surrounding. Groups are limited in size, and classes are held on digital Clavinovas in the keyboard lab.
Why Learn in a Group
Report
Most music is performed in groups, whether in a band, orchestra, or a choir. Learning together strengthens individual rhythm skills and listening habits and develops confidence. Students who wish to share their music with the rest of the class will have the opportunity to perform solos. You can use a Clavinova digital piano or a high quality acoustic piano.
Elementary Level Piano
Report
After 1 or 2 years of Group Piano classes a young student is prepared to continue their musical training in individual lessons with one of our artist teachers. The lessons advance the student from the beginning fundamentals through intermediate level playing. By specializing in young learners, we know how to reach students with the right balance of personalized attention, patience, practical training, and positive encouragement.
Intermediate Level Piano
Report
One of the more crucial phases for learning piano develops during the intermediate stages of study. During these years the student learns to move wider distances across the keyboard. Increased athletic mastery at the keyboard grows. The student also understands music theory at a higher level. Students at the intermediate level begin to learn more efficiently and effectively.
