Lessons with ms. tatiana
The Foundations of Piano Mastery: Technique, Theory, and Performance Confidence
Piano lessons with Ms. Tatiana are built on three interconnected pillars: technical facility, musical understanding, and performance fluency. This integrated approach ensures every student—child or adult, beginner or advanced—develops both the discipline of a trained pianist and the confidence of a complete musician.
Weekly lessons systematically introduce skills, with every new piece chosen to solidify acquired techniques while training a novel element. Whole-arm technique and tone productions are emphasized from the very first lesson, and musicality is fostered at all levels through ensemble repertoire.
Ample performance opportunities help students gain confidence both on stage and at home. Through regular required recitals, musicians of all ages and skill levels are guided through preparation for local, national, and international competitions.
Music Theory and History classes build both music appreciation and musicianship, as well as fundamental skills such as ear training, harmonic analysis, and period-appropriate performance. The advanced class will prepare for AP-level testing.
Certificates and repertoire
Certificate Programs
Young musicians can pursue several certificate tracks, depending on their specific interests in what aspects of repertoire or performance to focus on.
Repertoire incorporates classical compositions from all musical periods, from baroque to modern compositions. By selecting pieces affording a broad range of stylistic expression, students rapidly develop musical ear, robust technique, and stylistic language.
