My hybrid lesson schedule will be ready soon for sign-ups for the September 2020 – June 2021 year! First round of sign-ups will be for returning students, and then towards the third week of August I will open up the schedule for new students. Thank you in advance for understanding that this year, I share a “mostly for sure” schedule, but that some flexibility may be required should my kids’ school schedule or my family’s particular needs necessitate a piano schedule change.

Thank you to several parents who were able to provide opinions and suggestions for how I can consider reopening some spots in my home. Your input included good tips for sanitizing and maintaining social distance before, during, and after lesson time.

I am very grateful that all students continued with lessons from March – June to finish the regular academic year, in the midst of the worldwide Covid outbreak. To all the families who invested in new keyboards and better wifi, and allowed your daily schedules a good deal of interruptions to support music learning, YOU ROCK. To my students who keep steady practice each week, and who navigate Zoom and FaceTime lessons with grace and determination, HATS OFF TO YOU! I am lucky to be your teacher.

We will begin a new school year with some weirdness of uncharted pandemic life territory, yet not without the great, deep pleasures of piano music which express joy, passion, longing, and peace. May our students’ work fill our homes and lives with more of this powerful beauty!
