For over 4 decades I have had the privelage of passing on my love of music to hundreds of students. Testimonials; From Catherine, a parent in Rideau Park; I highly recommend Paul Schmalz. This is what I can tell you: Infinite patience, especially with kids; encouraging and affirming; he moves learning along at a steady but unthreatening pace; he employs a variety of teaching tools along with RCM such as piano apps and his own flash cards which break the learning steps down into manageable and fun steps. I’ve seen huge musical strides in the two years my daughter has been taking lessons with Paul and am very pleased. From Erin - parent - As a Royal Conservatory Music graduate myself, I am very impressed with the technical foundation that is provided through this learning system. Children learn fundamental aspects of piano technique right from the beginning without even realizing it. This system is fast paced, engaging and teaches concepts in bite sized pieces that all build on one another. I highly recommend this program. As a church musician for the last 20 years I continue to lead traditional hymns from the organ along with singing, playing and composing music from the digital piano with a contemporary band. For Sundays, weddings and special occasions I perform beautiful arrangements of sacred and classical music on the same warm and mellow sounding grand piano my students use for their 4 recitals RCM Associate Teacher, RCM Associate Performance Diploma and Western Board of Music Licentiate Performance Diploma from the. Along with my love for music I am an avid hiker, CFL Stampeders Football season ticket holder and long distance runner. I continue to compete in many road races including 2021 Melissa’s Half Marathon and finisher of the Hawaii Ironman Race.
