What styles of piano do you teach?‍

We teach all styles, from rock, pop and jazz to country, blues and classical. We have students who do piano exam programs and students who play in bands.

 

How qualified are Encore's piano instructors?
Our piano faculty have received their musical education from such prestigious institutions as New York University, Indiana University, the Berklee College of Music, Oxford University, University of Southern California, Eastman School of Music, and many other wonderful programs. Many have toured the US and Europe, bringing an abundance of performance and recording experience to your lessons. But most importantly, they are all engaging educators!

‍

What will I learn from piano lessons at Encore?
Whether you want to learn Bach or Alicia Keys, our teachers are dedicated to helping you become the pianist you want to be. They will show you the fundamentals of sight reading, technique and theory, and incorporate your favorite songs into your lessons.

 

Do I have to know how to read music?

‍No. Total beginners are welcome!

 

Do I need a piano to learn the instrument?
No, you do not need a piano at home to take lessons. A simple electronic keyboard with weighted keys will suffice for the first 6 months. 

 

Are there piano recitals?‍

Absolutely! Every Winter and Spring, our students have the opportunity to perform on a large stage. We do not sell tickets to performances, so you can invite all of your family and friends. We offer many other performance opportunities throughout the year including community events, senior living homes, and local coffee shops.
