Piano Lessons in Morris, CT

Instruments: Piano

I usually use the Faber, Beyer, or Czerny depend on the student's level. I'd add Hanon, bach 2,3 part invention, Sonatina album, and the list can go on.

Listening to music is very critical, it is just as important as practicing the instrument. Read More
