Piano Lessons for Adults
Are you an adult who has always wanted to play the piano, or do you bring several years of playing experience with you? Did you take piano lessons as a child, but didn’t have time to keep up over the years? Regardless of your circumstance, we’d be happy to work with you.
We will always take your goals into consideration. Many adults come to us with the ability to play by ear or read lead sheets, but they struggle to sight read or learn classical repertoire quickly – we can focus on that and teach you how to pick up a score and play it. Or maybe you were classically trained, but you can’t play popular genres or confidently play in a band. We can address that as well.
Another common theme with our adult piano students is tension and poor technique. Whether you work on a computer or perform manual labour for a living, you may bring years of tension in your hands, arms, shoulders and back to the piano. We will help you play with fluidity and ease so you don’t develop pain or bad habits.
From young professionals to recently retired individuals, adults love piano lessons in our studio.
Our Goals For You On The Piano
Sing Music Studio isn’t a stuffy conservatory trying to create piano-playing robots. We prioritize the enjoyment of music above all else, and to that end, we encourage excellence in our lessons and from our students.
Firstly, we encourage connections among our teachers, students, and peers. You will be able to meet other families enrolled at Sing Music Studio and foster relationships with other music-loving families to help you improve, find outlets for your new skills and enjoy music more.
Secondly, we strive for excellence in everything we do. Our lessons are structured and detailed, and we’ll give you specific things to practice each week.
Next, we always spark creativity in our piano students. You’ll be able to compose, improvise, and interpret your music in a unique way, and we’ll give you the tools necessary to execute your own ideas at the keyboard.
Lastly, we want to create confident, independent pianists. We will teach you how to practice so that you will eventually be able to pick out a piece of music on your own, work through it, and perform it with minimal input from a teacher. We also want you to grow the confidence to be able to perform in a range of musical situations, whether it be as an accompanist, in a band, or any other musical performance opportunities.
Do You Want To Play The Piano Simply For Fun?
Adults often contact us because they want a fun artistic outlet, they want to understand their favourite music better, or they want to participate in music with friends. Others simply want to unwind with some Chopin at the end of a busy day. If this sounds like you, let us know! We want to tailor your learning experience to your goals, and you don’t need to aspire to the Van Cliburn competition to enroll in lessons.
You may have similar goals for your child, and that’s great too. Not every child should be made to practice for two hours per day, compete in events every month, and feel a tremendous amount of pressure. We will nurture an appreciation of the piano, not enforce a rigid dogma.
Enjoy Our New Rockschool Method
Our students love the available Rockschool method for learning music. You will play rock, pop, and top 40 hits, and whether you aspire to professional songwriting or simply playing with friends, you’ll learn the ins and outs of your favourite songs. Study form, chord progressions, and more, and learn how to play the piano in a fun and creative method.
We also teach our students how to write songs and use their creativity. We won’t simply teach you how to regurgitate the notes on a page, and you will be able to improvise and play off lead sheets after working through our system.
Preparation for RCM Exams
If you do wish to pursue a more structured and rigorous piano education, we can facilitate that as well. We can prepare you for the various RCM exams, work graded literature into your lessons, and get your child ready for high school auditions if need be. This learning track requires a focus on technical exercises and daily practice of course, but if you want to become an excellent pianist, that’s what it takes.
Preparation For University or Conservatory Auditions
If your high schooler is considering advanced music degrees, or if you are an advanced pianist preparing for recitals, we would love to work with you as well. We can help you choose repertoire that will show off your abilities, whether it be Liszt, Rachmaninoff, a Chopin concerto, or Bach preludes and fugues. We’ll analyze your technique to increase speed, improve arm weight and wrist rotation to facilitate a beautiful tone, and help you interpret your music tastefully, among other things.
Opportunities For You To Grow At The Piano
We believe that you will advance at the piano faster if you learn in a collaborative environment. That’s why we offer numerous opportunities for you to play with and for your peers. We host many live performance opportunities per year and an end of year recital. You will have the opportunity to play your strongest pieces for family, friends and fellow students.
What Genres Can Your Piano Instructor Teach You?
As mentioned above, you’ll be able to focus on the genre of your choice at Sing Music Studio. We teach the fundamentals (music theory, technique, note reading, composition, improvisation, and more) to every student, and you’ll be able to use those skills to play jazz, show tunes, classical music, and more.
If you aspire to work as a collaborative pianist, we’d be happy to work on Schubert’s lieder, Italian art songs, the Great American Songbook, and more. If you want to play pop tunes, we can fine-tune your ability to play from fake books and lead sheets. And if you want to play classical music at a high level, we’ll carefully select graded literature, from Mozart sonatas to Prokofiev.
