Piano
We primarily offer the RCM curriculum in our piano program. But before
beginning the RCM method, students must begin with an alternate method.
Some recommended books are the ABC method by Boris Berlin for children
ten and under, and Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course for the older beginner.
A suitable age to start lessons is around six or seven years old. However, the
minimum requirements to begin lessons are a knowledge of letters and
numbers, and most importantly, an ability to concentrate and pay attention to
the teacher for at least 25 minutes.

In order to make suitable progress, it is imperative that any piano student
have a proper instrument to practice on. That means you must purchase
an actual piano (as opposed to an electronic keyboard) if you want to get
the most out of your lessons. As a piano student, you are not only learning
the notes on the staff or on the keyboard, you are also learning to
manipulate the piano in order to achieve the proper sounds while
performing piano works.
