Come join my large active piano studio where students are having the time of their lives. They all agree that, for the self-motivated and determined aspirant, chasing piano excellence is intense fun. My students range from retirees just starting out, talented teens preparing for university auditions, active professional musicians and piano teachers looking to polish their skills, adults preparing for Classical piano exams, and aspiring jazz pianists. After a free interview I will design a personalized course of action for you, and we’ll get started. You will be offered options, when appropriate, to participate in classical music recitals, jazz trio nights and more. Please give me a call, I'd love to hear from you. David
