Piano Lessons in Miami Beach, FL
By Julia B. - Miami Piano Teacher
Do you want to take piano lessons in Miami Beach? Or, maybe you already know the basics of the piano, but want to master your skills and go on to the next level?
No matter your intention in playing the piano, taking piano lessons in Miami Beach and exploring the Miami musical community can be extremely fun and can make a great impact on your piano career! Here’s how...
As you probably know, Miami is one of the “hottest” cities in the United States - not only because of its tropical climate and sunshine all year round, but also because it offers lots of world-class, live events at many local music and entertainment venues. Participating in these events can give you a lot of opportunities to see your favorite musicians, discover new ones, learn new skills, connect and collaborate with different musicians, and be discovered.
If you like classical piano, you will be thrilled to be part of some annual events, such as the Miami International Piano Festival, Miami Summer Music Festival, National Chopin Piano Competition, and the Tropical Baroque Music Festival. The goal of these festivals is to keep classical music alive, feature the most promising pianists in world-class performance venues, and support and provide young artists with the guidance, training, and promotion needed to succeed. Check out their websites below: http://miamipianofest.com/ http://www.miamisummermusicfestival.com/ http://www.chopin.org/ http://www.miamibachsociety.org/
As an additional resource for pianists, MSMF put together a program called the “Three Week Piano Symposium.” You can also visit the campus of Barry University and observe lessons, hear lectures and attend master classes free of charge.
For those who love jazz piano, blues, R&B and soul, each spring The City of Miami Gardens holds the Jazz in the Gardens Music Festival (http://www.jazzinthegardens.com/). Additionally, Sunshine Jazz Organization of South Florida provides programs, concerts and workshops, and brings jazz to underprivileged children (http://www.sunshinejazz.org/).
Fully experience the Latin culture of Miami at The Calle Ocho Festival and Carnaval On The Mile, where every spring, people get together to celebrate and listen to the beats of merengue, Reggaeton, bachata, balada, hip hop, rap, Latin jazz, and Caribbean rhythms (http://www.carnavalmiami.com/).
And finally, you can find some more resources for piano concerts, open rehearsals, and free music events at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Downtown Miami, a premier showcase for the performing arts that offers three state-of-the-art theaters and an outdoor stage (http://www.arshtcenter.org/).
Although there is always opportunity to perform in Miami, practicing piano craft and becoming better in all aspects of it can guarantee you success as a performing pianist.
Good luck in your piano lessons in Miami Beach, and enjoy your musical journey!
About Erik A.

Piano is a great instrument to start out with. It can help you learn so many things. We'll break down music fundamentals and learn good technique from the beginning so you can set yourself up to excel in the future.
About Erik
I want to teach you how to express yourself through music. I've been inspired by music since I was young and have been involved in one way or another since I started piano lessons at age 3. I've been playing guitar for over fifteen years and written and recorded music for about eight. Whether you want to go into music seriously as I have, or just use music as a hobby and way to express yourself, I want to help you accomplish your goal.

Each person is different and learns in a slightly different way. Having said that, there are certain essentials which must not be ignored. If you've never taken lessons before, we'll start with the fundamentals, how to hold the guitar properly, make chords, build up finger strength, properly tune the guitar, know all the strings, and most importantly play songs.

Each person is different and learns in a slightly different way. Having said that, there are certain essentials which must not be ignored. If you've never taken lessons before, we'll start with the fundamentals, how to hold the guitar properly, make chords, build up finger strength, properly tune the guitar, know all the strings, and most importantly play songs. You will lea
rn how to read basic music, but I can teach you how to play by ear too. Before we have completed our series you or your children will have basic knowledge of all these things and a desire to explore at least some of these aspects further.
For me, the most interesting music reveals the unique perspective and feelings of the person who makes it. Having conquered the essentials I will encourage you to be creative with your developing talents. I can teach you about song structure and I can teach you how to jam with your friends. If you are interested in writing and composing, I can help you with that too. We can take a look at your favorite artists and try to discover how they accomplished and perfected their sound. If you want to learn how to record I have a computer equipped with Pro Tools and would be glad to show you how to use it.
You'll spend time listening to me of course, but I hope to spend much of my time listening to you as well. If reading music doesn't inspire you we can focus more on learning by ear. It's up to you. You'll need your own instrument obviously, though you can leave it at home if you don't want to carry it back and forth. I have guitars here. I request that you purchase a book with text and exercises so that you can practice and study what you learn in the class. Even if you do not want to read music, you will need to know the neck and conquer scale formations and chords. We can choose the text based on your needs.

About Alicia
Alicia has been playing the violin since she can remember thanks to her very talented musical family. Because of their efforts she received her first exposure to loving and teaching music at an early age through attending and later assisting her mother's Suzuki string program. They also afforded her the opportunity to learn with some of the finest violin teachers Miami has to offer.
A proud alumni of Miami's public arts programs, including those of Southwood Middle School, Coral Reef Senior High and the Greater Miami Youth Symphony, Alicia encourages all of her school-age students to explore their options of participating in the various youth arts organizations in the community.

About Lucian
Lucian W is an alumnus of Berklee College of Music in Boston and former faculty member of the Hartford Conservatory. His vocal studies have been with Jacqueline Jarrett and David Baker in Connecticut, Jane Ellison at Loyola University in Montreal, noted operatic tenor Carmine Gagliardi in New York City, and Gina Moretta (whose students have included Gloria Estefan and Jon Secada) in Miami. He studied privately with world famous jazz guitarists George Benson and Chuck Wayne and has had a full time performing career of several decades as a guitarist, pianist, vocalist, bassist, arranger and orchestra leader.

Lucian believes that by sharing his enjoyment of making music with his students, he can give them confidence in other areas. That is because, in order to make music, they must go through a process of physical discovery through pr
actice. They are then empowered by experiencing the connections between inspiration, work, and pleasure.
He performs, as a solo entertainer, an unusually wide ranging repertoire because of his versatility on guitar, piano, and vocals. Being an accomplished arranger with a vast library of charts also allows him to lead a ten piece orchestra as competently as a trio or quartet. He has performed extensively in New York, Chicago, Cape Cod, and Florida.
*** Lesson Details ***
I always try to make lessons as comfortable and enjoyable as possible yet challenging enough to maintain interest. I build lessons around the student's individual interests (specific songs or styles) so that he or she can learn the technical fundamentals in a relevant context.
My own curriculum is supplemented by the following:
Guitar: Hal Leonard Guitar Method, Aaron Shearer Classical Guitar Method
Piano: Alfred's Basic Piano Course , John W. Schaum Piano Course
Voice: Jeffrey Allen's Secrets of Singing, Nicola Vaccai Practical Method
*** Studio Equipment ***
Hardman baby grand acoustic piano
OptimusMD1600 electronic keyboard
Crate TX50D guitar amplifer
*** Specialties ***
- Singing lesson time is generally divided 50/50 between voice building and repertoire. I accompany vocalists on both piano and guitar, teaching the melody notes as they are sung along with the piano. Then, once the melody is learned, I often switch to the guitar with just chordal backing. The acoustic guitar is also softer than the piano and lets the singer hear their own voice better. For voice building, I use my own concepts plus approaches of famous voice teachers like Jeffrey Allen, Seth Riggs, and Anthony Frissel.
- I am very experienced performing all styles of guitar and can cater to the student's specific area of interest, whether it be rock, folk, classical, or jazz.
- With piano, I work on fundamentals of reading and technique. Learning basic harmony and chord construction starting with triads (3 note chords), the student can soon read single stave lead sheets (a form of music notation widely utilized by professional musicians) as well as the grand staff. This approach trains the ear and makes learning how to play popular songs much easier.

About Axel
I found out early on (age of 13) that I had a facility to teach and help friends understand music concepts. Some said it's a gift, others said it's vocation. To me it was just sharing what I loved. Since I had already decided to make music my career I made it a point to learn more and all I could in this field. Three degrees later (B.M /Berklee College of Music, B.M and M.M. /University of Miami) having studied under amazing Masters and years of performing, touring, producing and recording I have a lot to offer anyone, any age, any level when they choose me as their music teacher.

About Leidys M.
Close
Children today are very resourceful and love to use their imagination. An effective music and piano method needs to provide them with the tools and opportunities to create. That is why when we started our Miami Piano Studio and could not found an mindful and comprehensive method to use with our students we decided to created ourselves. That is how the Brain-Based Piano Method was born. It incorporates the principles and practices used by the music masters of the past with the latest scientific findings on how we learn.
It encourages our students to build an understanding of the basic concepts of music, develop the habit of making connections and create their own compositions from the very beginning.
About Leidys
Hi, at the Miami Piano Studio we love to teach children as young as 3 years old and adults using our own method. The Brain-Based Piano Method is a Mindful and Comprehensive System to learn music and piano that incorporates the principles and practices used by the great masters of western music and the latest scientific findings on how we learn. Our method incorporates the now rediscovered art of Partimenti, a way to see and understand music that allows students to make music in real time (compose, improvise). We, my husband and I, started creating our method in 2012 when we could not find a comprehensive method conceived with today's parents and children needs in mind. We are proud to say that our method has proved to be fun, engaging, effective and practical. our students learn from early on the basics of music: ear training, music theor
y, piano technique, reading and writing notes, improvization, composition, and more. For us creativity is first. We constantly encourage our students to be creative from the very beginning. Our method is a complete system for learning the piano that includes books, rewards, teaching materials, musical story books, recordings and video tutorials accessible online. When you Join us, you will become part of a creative and dynamic studio! You will learn how to see the connections present in music and to transfer all that knowledge to other aspects of your lives. I hope to meet you soon to start a very exciting musical learning journey!

About Tonya
Hi, there! My name is Antonina and I can't wait to meet you! I've been teaching private lessons for over 10 years and although I help foster technically advanced students, I mostly pride myself on the fact that I help students fall into a lifelong love with music! Although with time students tend to lose their interest due to the self-discipline required to succeed at playing an instrument, I make sure to offer a fresh, inspirational, and engaging approach to my lessons. I introduce many different styles, performance skills, composition, and most importantly the ability for self-expression through music. I have been playing, teaching, and performing my entire life and have a huge passion to share the gift of music!

Hello, my name is Leann Hyojung Cho.
When I was 5 years old, I started my piano training in classical and jazz piano.
I studied Jazz and Pop Piano at the Post Modern Music Dept. at the very famous Kyung Hee University (in South Korea). This is the same school that produced pop stars like Rain, Super Junior’s Kyuhyun, Primary, Big Bang’s GD and Daesung, TVXQ’s Yunho and Yoochon to name a few.
Since I was in College, I’ve been teaching pop and jazz piano to a variety of students, from beginner to the experienced, at all age levels. I understand every student is not the same, so I make it a priority to adapt my teaching style to match a person’s learning style to maximize the learning session.
While providing lessons to a variety of students, I joined multiple bands and jazz groups playing various genres such as, alternative rock

While providing lessons to a variety of students, I joined multiple bands and jazz groups playing various genres such as, alternative rock
, hip-hop, pop, and fusion. In these groups, I played piano concerts, played for various video projects, and also multiple studio recordings.
After I graduated with my Bachelors, I wanted to develop my music knowledge as a jazz composer. Therefore, I prepared and studied hard, and was admitted to the very competitive University of Miami Studio Jazz Writing program which is top 3 in nation for music programs. Since then, I’ve made Miami my home. In addition to playing music, I have been teaching Korean to UM students in their Direct Independent Language Studies program.
In Miami, my music creativity has grown and I have met amazing musicians. From 2011 to the present, I have arranged, composed, and continue to perform in various fields.
I believe my various experiences will help me teach you to learn the piano in any style you choose. Doesn’t matter who you are, what your experiences are, I will guide you to learn the piano, whether it be for professional reasons or recreationally.

"Leidys has a lot of patience and her method resonates really well with me and the children in the class. The method is very much ear based especially with
young pre readers and i think this is how a person really understands music well. both leidys and her partner Mijai are fabulous instructors and i hope for my children to be taking lessons with them for a long time."

Review by Sevag
"Jovian is a fantastic teacher with a different teaching approach compared to others. He's an honest man that loves his career and clearly not in it for la
rge profits. He takes the time to explain and go out of his way. Jovian is organized, punctual and professional. My daughter quickly excelled with her piano skills and looks forward to her lessons. We are very pleased with her performance and couldn't have asked for a better teacher.
A few pieces of advice to parents...Don't expect quick results if your not involved with your child's lessons. Consider yourself lucky if he has room for more students!"

Review by Madeleine
"Leidys & Mihai have taught my son for several years now, beginning at the age of 4. It is amazing to see how he has developed musically. I have posted vi
deos of him to FB and folks have commented about how amazing it is that he is playing without looking at the book (their method teaches playing by ear from the beginning and it fits well because the little ones are not yet able to read). For the smaller ones they have lots of games and different tools to teach rhythm and other concepts, and then as the kids get older they have more serious lessons. They also have a very unique "musical games" event that is part of the recital, to reinforce the music theory concepts that they have learned throughout the year. If you want your little kids to get started in music, you can't go wrong with this studio."
