Piano Lessons in Columbus Circle, NY

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Piccolo

For students who are learning an instrument for band or marching band, I like to integrate their sheet music or method books into the lesson. I use method books with students who are new to their instrument. These materials are then supplemented with scales, solo repertoire, exercises, and technique work as appropriate for each student's interest and skill level. Lessons also consist of listening to previous assignments/repertoire from prior weeks and then offering feedback, answering any questions a student may have, and giving new assignments for the next lesson.

Establishing a good teacher-student rapport reinforces positive associations that enrich the process of musical growth. Read More

I was fortunate to study under 2 particularily amazing teachers who offered me the best of both worlds. One was a classical vocal and piano and instructor, the other special in pop and more contemporary piano and voice. These 2 styles combined is how I teach my voice students.
