Piano Students:
I'm a beginner...If you are a beginner then at your first lesson you will be given the opportunity to share what exposure you have had to music. At your first lesson, you'll learn a few basic notes or exercises on the instrument and begin to learn how to read music.
|
I've taken lessons before...If you have some musical experience in the past, you may be asked to play/sing a song selection of your choice demonstrating your skill on the instrument. You may also be asked to try to play/sing various technical exercises and sight-read a new piece of music.
