*INDIVIDUAL PIANO LESSONS
After having taught for 25 years, I am now accepting adults only.
I borrow from various traditional programs for piano lessons and offer a varied repertoire. I am also able to help you evaluate your goals and work with your individual learning style. I love teaching and through a creative and practical understanding of theory basics, I can guide you to read, write, play by ear, create your own music, improvise, get off the page and have some fun. "Born Again Piano Players" are most welcome. Beginners of all ages are guided with an easy and patient approach to learning music. Experienced piano players will find some fresh approaches to further their study and casual musicians can find ways to express themselves without the long haul of serious study.
*MUSIC THEORY LESSONS Basic theory and jazz theory. Scales, intervals, modes, rhythms and chord progressions. All tools to help you play by ear, compose, improvise, ect.
Includes listening examples, to understand styles and music of other cultures. Customized to suit your learning style.
*Custom Curriculum If you are self motivated, I can guide you with a customized curriculum for you to use on your own
*BEYOND CLASSICAL - This class will help you "fill in the gaps" and develop or use your understanding of theory to assist you in playing by ear and interpret chord charts.copy website
