Online or In Person: Piano and Music Theory Lessons

There is not a better time to study the piano! Experienced, dedicated, and fun instruction for your goals at the instrument.
I am a University music professor, now based in Østerbro, Copenhagen, with 20 years of experience teaching across Canada and the United States.

My students work in classical and popular styles, toward goals of examination preparations, university and conservatory acceptances, as well as learning a specific style or set of pieces, or simply for life enrichment. Music is the ultimate way to communicate and to express, and it is my goal for my students to equip themselves to do just that.

Lessons are taught at my home in Østerbro or online.

As a teacher of certificate programs for twenty years, and with over 5 years teaching at the college level to undergraduate and graduate students, my skillset is constantly developing.

Available to teach at all levels for piano, music theory and history lessons, as well as tutoring for conservatory music courses.

About Me

It is my goal to equip my students with the tools they need to become independent, curious learners. Working with an individualized approach, each student helps to set goals, and I provide structures, tools, and motivate to achieve those goals.

I have been teaching for over 20 years, and love my work! Teaching is a joyful experience- being a part of the process of discovery is one of my favorite parts of my work. My students are prizewinners and hobbyists; late bloomers, young starts, and everything in between. What we all have in common is a love of music and of learning.

I have founded music schools, worked in private lesson settings, and worked for several years as a professor at an American university teaching all levels. My own work includes a concert schedule of solo and group performances all over the world; I make music videos and documentaries, paint, and am an avid lover of art, design, and beautiful plants!

My experience as a musician crosses genres, styles, disciplines.... and I love my work. There is nothing more rewarding than sharing the thrill of music with others- especially my students.

Piano lessons for all ages and skill levels in København
Piano lessons for all levels taught by an experienced musician and teacher. I have a background in jazz and classical music with a bachelors in jazz piano performance from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and a masters in music from Rytmisk Musikkonservatorium København. I have also studied at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris. Over the years I have built a large class of students of all levels and created unique and personalised lesson plans for each individual depending on their interests and musical tastes. Whether you're starting piano for the first time or you're getting ready to audition for a music degree, I look forward to working with you to meet your goals.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

Lydia
Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)
Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student. My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.
