The piano is the foundation of western music. It's range covers most of the pitches audible to human ears and is capable of enormous harmonic complexity. Because of this nearly all classical music by composers such as Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart was first worked out on the keyboard before it was notated for other instruments.

These days the influence of the piano and it's modern counterpart, the keyboard, can be heard in the music all around us. The musical keyboard has become the way most artists interface with digital recording and mixing tools. In addition, with it's physical layout the piano is accessible technique-wise to anyone - from very young children to the most advanced concert and jazz pianists. For this reason the piano has always been one of the most popular instruments to take lessons on.

No Contracts

Just as no two people are alike, no two students learn the same way. Some people take lessons for years while others take lessons for a few weeks to prepare for an upcoming audition. Encore Music Lessons won't require you to make any long term commitments. Students are free to stop or start their lessons when they need to.

Perhaps you're considering learning the piano as well. You might be feeling a little overwhelmed by how much there is to learn. An experienced piano teacher can help you understand everything step by step, at your own speed.

Lesson Location

Lessons can be given in the privacy of your residence or at a teacher's studio in your area.

Encore Music Lessons exists to help students get in touch with experienced music teachers.

If you or your child are a beginner, the teacher may cover fundamentals such as note reading, major and minor scales, arpeggios, and simple pieces of music.

Students in the intermediate stage may learn about topics like counterpoint, legato technique chord scales, and "triadic" playing versus "modal" playing.

For advanced students subjects like repetoire, advanced harmony, chromaticism, and composition may be introduced.

Whatever stage you're at, whatever areas of music you'd like to focus on, Encore Music Lessons can help you find an experienced professional to teach you. Don't waste your precious time with inferior instructors.

If you'd like to find out more about us and how we work, please call us at 212-537-6746 or 800-417-4620.

Student Reviews

Cello's heaven.

I had been looking for a challenge in my life; and I found it in learning to play the Cello.... Thanks to Lesley's orientation, and patience I love every class. It has been a wonderful experience that I could not have achieved without Lesley's remarkable guidance.

About the Piano

About the Piano

Upright pianos, also called vertical pianos, are more compact because the frame and strings are placed vertically, extending in both directions from the keyboard and hammers.
