Piano Lessons Northeast

Instruments: Piano, Organ, Synthesizer, Keyboard

My main goal when I am teaching one-on-one lessons is to share my love of music, to get the student to view music making with the same wonder that I did when I was first began playing. The last thing I want is to have my students feeling like playing piano is a chore. Because of this, I like to have a few different personal goals running concurrently.

I started at the age of 9 on the accordion. I performed various concerts while continuing to sharpen my skills as a piano player. I have over 40 years of experience performing and teaching. What separates the best piano players from the rest of us is that they persevere through these challenges. Having the personal fortitude and work ethic to look at any difficult passage, and practice it until its perfect, is an attribute that you can learn, but will need to be cognizant of every day.
