Do you have recitals?
Absolutely! Twice a year our students have the opportunity to perform in a beautiful hall with a grand piano. Unlike many competitors, we do not charge students a fee to perform, and admission is free! We also periodically offer the opportunity to perform in a special, one of a kind venue! Recitals are optional.

A non-refundable registration fee is due, along with the first month’s tuition, and tuition is then collected in monthly installments. Please contact the studio for current rates.
