Trusted Piano Lessons in Rosemount

Most children are ready between five and seven, once they can sit for half an hour and follow simple directions. Piano is often the easiest first instrument because the notes are laid out in front of the student. Older kids and adults start any time, and a fair number of beginners here are grown adults.

Lessons run in a monitored room with a digital piano, on a schedule that suits you. A typical session moves through warm ups, whatever was assigned last time, and something new. Parents are welcome to sit in. Students who prefer strings sometimes add or switch to guitar lessons later on.

Piano lessons are $40 per half hour, paid in four week semesters in advance. There is no registration fee, no recital fee, and no separate charge for materials. That rate is the same for both piano teachers, so the only thing that changes your total is how many weeks you sign up for. Ask about piano openings.

You need something with keys to practice on, but it does not have to be an acoustic piano. A weighted digital keyboard works fine for the first few years and takes up far less room. The store carries stands and accessories, and the teachers will tell you what to look for before you spend anything.

Yes, one of the two piano teachers specializes in teaching students to play entirely by ear. Playing by ear means hearing a melody, finding it on the keys, then building chords underneath it. Some students do only that. Others split their time between ear training and reading. Both paths run through the same lessons.

Piano lessons run in a monitored room at the shop, on a full weighted digital piano rather than a keyboard on a stand. Parents are welcome to sit in. The room is off the main floor in Rosemount Market Square, steps from the instrument wall and the repair bench.
