Comprehensive Kids Piano Lessons – A Structured Curriculum for Every Level!
“I can play!” – Let’s begin by finding the joy of playing music. Your Children will learn music skills steadily at a gradual and easy progression.
What’s unique about our lessons
“Pianoforte” is designed to help school-age children who play the piano for the first time, feel the joy of music and acquire the ability to express their thoughts and feelings through playing the piano. We offer a selection of 12 textbooks at the student's level and rich-sounding audio files.
The textbooks are compiled with the following aims:
1. To acquire comprehensive musical skills step by step, page by page
2. To correspond to the contents of Yamaha grade examinations and other grade examinations. The audio files include recordings of piano performances, which can be used as a model performance for reference
Especially at the beginner level, students can enjoy playing repertoire pieces with accompaniment. The repertoire pieces included in the textbook are not only solos but also duets with the teacher and pieces played with the teacher's accompaniment. Also students can enjoy playing ensembles with the teacher in the lessons.
