Piano Lessons
CREATEWe learn to read music & play artistically. We also learn to express our own musical ideas at the piano through composing, arranging & improvising.
|
COLLABORATESolos are important, & we learn showy ones! But we also have many opportunities to play together in groups, through piano duets & rhythm ensembles.
|
GAMIFY LEARNINGWe play a huge variety of music-learning games in lessons, during lab, in home practice, & at Piano Club. Fun learning sticks!
|
SHAREWe share our music in a mix of informal & formal performances: Piano Club, recitals, & Festival.
|
Private Piano Lesson + LabAll students attend weekly 50-60 minute sessions: 40 minutes with Mrs. Troutner in a private lesson at the piano + 10-20 minutes in the studio lab.
In their weekly private lessons, students learn to read music, play the piano expressively, & compose music of their own. Engaging music & off-the-bench games make learning fun! Then, learning is extended in the studio lab, where students learn about composers, play music theory computer games, or complete special projects at the digital piano. |
Piano Club Group ClassesTwo-three times per semester, we meet in Piano Club small group classes. After each student performs, we build our skills through fun music theory games, ensembles, & other hands-on activities. Each Piano Club group includes 3-6 students of similar age & level.
