●●A Message from the Instructor●●
I believe that finding a way to appreciate music is the best way to improve
yourself as a musician. Technical improvement is essential for any level
of pianists, but one must find the inner depth of music and find your own
sound and musicality. My believe is that the true motivation and the joy
of playing music comes from that. Through my lessons, I would like to show
you many detentions of the music, and how to freely control an orchestra
call “piano”.
