Welcome Adult Piano Students!
I am very glad to have received quite a number of adult piano students in the past month. Some of them are new to piano, while others had some piano lessons in the past.

In my mind and heart, every concert is unique, just as every one of our students at my studio is.
Everyone gets nervous before, during and even after they perform on stage; it’s a normal reaction. Who isn’t worried about their own performance? But in order to get more comfortable and be better at it, one must go up that stage over and over again, sometimes even they have performed rather poorly in their last act.

A piano impro song by yours truly, called “Morning Prayer”. Hope you enjoy!
I got inspired by a new student to play this song I’ve never heard of, by Oscar Peterson. It’s called “Hymn to Freedom”. Enjoy!

I love this kid! Music on Wings Piano Beginner Course:… Continue reading Happy Birthday Song

My online music learning platform has a great run, consulting piano students and piano teachers around the… Continue reading Happy New Year!
