To all my seasoned and new students, welcome to my '21-22 music season! Now that everyone's first week of school is over with or underway, I'm happy to announce that lessons for all piano and cello students will start next week. This is going to be such an exciting year with a few changes but more of the same spark-lighting for the next generation of musicians. 

SCHEDULING For those of you who are relatively new, you may be wondering about lesson scheduling. Thank you for your patience! I always wait until everyone's school + activity schedules settle in (including the many moving parts of my own!) before opening up my schedule. This year, I will have more students than ever before so I will be doing things a bit differently. Below is a list of my open days + times. Please text me your 1st and 2nd choice of days and time preferences by Friday at 5:00 p.m. EST. I will get my final schedule set Saturday and text you individually with your assigned slot and total tuition for the upcoming week. As always, I try to be as flexible as I can so if we need to adjust exact times on your assigned day, please let me know. 

OPENINGS
Tuesday 3:00-5:00
Thursday 3:00-4:15, 4:45-5:30
Friday 3:00-5:30
Saturday 8:00-11:30

TUITION + EXPECTATIONS After a summer of relaxation, half-time lessons and much reflection, I've decided to do a long-overdue (15 years!) update and streamlining to the business end of my music teaching. Over the past several years, I have added recital videos, remote master classes, and much more individualized solo arranging for my students without raising my rates. My rates will now be the same for all instruments and time frames which for some of you may mean a tuition increase. My family discount stays with a percentage bump as well. Click here for more details. All lessons, master classes, original arrangements, and recitals are included in the tuition price. 

UPCOMING DATES
Tues. September 6 :: starting week of lessons
Sat. October 30 @ 11:00 a.m. EST :: Monster Master Class (student solos + music history feature Beethoven!)
Sun. December 12 @ 5:00 p.m. EST :: Christmas Recital (details to follow)

Thanks again to all you amazing parents who balance it all and still encourage and support your budding musicians. And to my students, it's going to be a year! Let's play hard!
