Summer Piano Students say…
“My favorite activity was learning and playing duets. I think it improved my sight-reading, and it was just fun to learn something new.”
“I liked the small group lessons. It was fun to hear what other people were playing and to learn different techniques.”
“I learned to hear new things. My theory has improved greatly. I thought that performing in front of others really improved my playing and gave me more confidence for the recital.”
“I think that I practice better now because I count much more than I used to. This way, I can achieve more in one practice session.”
