2023-2024 - We are in Year One of a Three-Year Rotating Curriculum
Our theme for 2023-2024:
Lights! Camera! Action!
* Recitals are Held Twice Each Year
* Parents are always welcome at lessons. I have a waiting room for parents and siblings.
Using games, performances and lab books, we increase our theory knowledge and skill. We discuss chord structures, dynamics, tempos, terms, symbols, etc.
Each student is paired with another student to learn a duet. Students learn how to listen to someone else while they are playing.
Two of my students performing Russian Rag
All students compose a piece and perform it at one of our recitals. We study the four musical periods. Each student receives a book with all compositions in it.
YOUR INVESTMENT IN YOUR CHILD
* Lessons are billed by the school year and broken up into equal monthly payments. You may choose from the following:
*Two students share 1 hour. Each has 30 minutes with me and 30 minutes of lab time (computer or iPad theory games, writing music, etc.) - approximately $168-184/month depending on the day of the week. Younger students begin with a 30-minute lesson only and move up to the hour when ready. The extra half hour of lessons is free for all students.
*Longer private lessons are available upon a free evaluation.
*Non-refundable, registration fee of $120/child or $185/family is required. This covers all supplies, all music, incentives, rewards, awards, lesson planning, technology, apps, and free access at home to the award-winning app, Piano Maestro, by JoyTunes (value $60/year and iPad only) and Supersonics Plus (an online, digital music and accompaniment app - value $30/year and is for iPad, or any device that can connect to the internet.)
