Group Classes

New this year! We now offer a group class for our youngest beginners. You can enroll preschoolers age 3-5 to get started in a group setting and build a foundation to prepare them for success in private lessons.

Preschool Piano Preparation Group Classes are an unparented 10 week program, with 45 minute classes running weekly from September 29 through December 15. This is geared towards 3-5 year olds who are not quite ready for private lessons, but are eager to start their musical journey! 

Mondays 10:30-11:15 am

Tuesdays 10:00-10:45 am

Saturdays 4:00-4:45 pm

Cost/child: $275 per session

Private Lessons

Most students will use Nancy and Randall Faber’s award winning series of books as a starting point. From there, students are free to explore their musical passions, including learning their favourite pop song or classical music piece, as well as music from Broadway, movies or video games. Composition is always introduced as a way to express creativity while learning. We don’t learn unless we’re having fun, and to have fun, we have to love what we’re playing!

While one-on-one lessons are tailored to the strengths and challenges of individual students, they will usually comprise some or all of the following subjects:

  • Reading and transcribing music

  • Composition

  • Improvisation

  • Ear training

  • Theory

  • Keyboard work

  • Rhythm training

  • Singing

  • Music history

  • Mindfulness

Recitals

As part of their lessons, students will have an opportunity to perform in front of a live audience twice a year. During these recitals, students can show off what they’ve learned in a supportive environment and celebrate the achievements of their studiomates.
