About Piano Beginnings

Piano Beginnings is a dynamic program where students ages 4-8 learn to play the piano while singing and having fun in a small group setting. This three-year program is designed to make piano learning enjoyable and effective, providing a strong foundation in music for young learners.

Why Teach at Piano Beginnings?

• Engaging Curriculum: Our program includes singing, technique, composition, theory, ear training, solfège, self-accompaniment, playing together in a group, and classical music enjoyment.
