Learn Four Songs in Four Weeks while enjoying a glass of wine!

 

Piano

11/21-12/12 at the Steinway Piano Gallery, ages 21+, various evening timeslots available

Some music teachers may not want you to know this, but you don't need years of weekly lessons to learn piano. In just a few hours, you can learn enough secrets of the trade to give yourself years of musical enjoyment. How do we do it? While regular piano teachers teach note reading, piano professionals use chords, which are much faster to learn. If you can find “middle C”, you already know enough to enroll in this workshop. It is not a piano party without wine; yes, it will be served.
