Description: Example of some classical technique

Piano

Hello.  If you want to learn to play and understand piano and music,... I can help you!

I teach, play and compose a variety of styles, such as pop, rock, blues, classical, jazz, and new-age music. I can show you how to listen to a recording and to play it without written music. Also, I can teach you to read a lead sheet/fake book/chord chart or the grand staff for piano. I can teach you simple or fancy chords/scales/songs.

I have played keyboard and or piano for the "Diana Ross Show Review", "Beatlemania" and various notable restaurants/clubs in Pittsburgh, Pa. I studied music at Duquesne University and studied privately with Frank Cunimondo for Jazz improvisation.

I enjoy helping students learn to play the piano and understand music. We will have a good time.

I can teach you the fundamentals and beyond and help you pursue all of your musical goals.

Please listen to my CD, "Spaces With Time". I hope you enjoy it.

Ready to play? Let's schedule some lessons together soon.

Bennie is a nice guy and a solid piano teacher.

Bennie is a good teacher and helped me get good start in learning the piano

Bennie Dervin is the best piano player, composer, teacher, and all around musician EVER!! His expertise transcends all barriers. I have featured his music in my Hollywood TV series, and people from LA and all over the world rave to me about his phenomenal skills. He works hard at everything he does, going the extra mile. His passion for the art of music is pure and anyone who works with him is blessed-I know I am!! SO GRATEFUL!! 5 STARS HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

Bennie draws on years of experience and knowledge to help you grow and develop your own skills and achieve your goals as a seasoned musician. Professional or otherwise.

Bennie is a knowledgeable, patient and enthusiastic teacher/tutor. He is very flexible and never looks at the time pass, not even when it passes his lesson hour. He is giving me a lot of helpful advices to make me improving. Each lesson with him is different and brings me more suggestions and new perspectives. I highly recommend Bennie as teacher/tutor.

Bennie is a very patient and intelligent teacher. You will not be disappointed with him.  My granddaughter truly enjoys her time with him.

Bennie is a virtuoso keyboard player but also a great teacher at any level. He is also very sound on music technology and home recording as well as vocal coaching.  I would highly recommend Bennie no matter what level you are on, he knows his craft!

I have had vocal training with Bennie for quite a few years. He is a very dedicated teacher and showed me techniques I did not know existed. He has improved me to the point that I know perform at various venues. Additional to the vocal training, Bennie showed me how to find my pitch range and vocal warm-ups using the piano. I have trained with Bennie both in person and online. He is an extremely talented individual, I have even performed some of his original compositions. Anyone who is reviewing his profile will be extremely happy in their selection. He is a lot of fun to work with and his hours are very flexible. Thank you Bennie for the training we have had and looking forward to the future as being my mentor.

Bennie played piano at the restaurant in the office building I use to work and always had the crowd rocking, grooving, swinging and swaying. He later played piano at my wedding and made the reception a night all my guest would long remember. I had no background or experience in piano but decided to  take lessons from Bennie. He took time to write a lesson plan tailored to my level. He’s the best!!

Bennie is knowledgeable, patient and a resourceful teacher who loves his craft and inspires others!

Bennie has been playing a long time and has progressed steadily through the years. He joined a rock band around 1970 and never lost focus of his music career. Highly recommend his teaching abilities.

Great teacher and great easy going person

I studied with Bennie for several years with the goal of improving my improvisational skills and hand independence.  I improved in both areas significantly and am much stronger player.  Bennie can push you to a very high level and he stays very engaged between lessons for questions, feedback and additional support.  He even attended my performance shows and offered feedback.  My only regret is that my day job obligations, available practice time and personal learning speed did not allow a greater lesson frequency.

I couldn't ask for a better teacher. Bennie has the talent and experience to help anyone trying to either learn from scratch or improve their current skill level.  Due to the fact that I travel quite a bit with my business I used the holiday season to get a refresher course and Bennie was the right teacher for this. He gave me more in 5 lessons then I could have gotten from anyone else if I had 20 lessons. Unfortunately, I travel a lot for my business and I can't commit to a regular lesson schedule.

Learn all genres' and techniques of the piano.
