Piano Lessons in Baltimore, Maryland
By Rob F. - Baltimore Piano Teacher
Hi there! I’m Rob F. and I teach piano lessons in Baltimore, Maryland. I am originally from White Plains, New York, and have just recently moved to Baltimore to explore its excellent music scene. While there are great differences between these two music scenes, I have found several similarities that both cities share.
As the keyboardist and songwriter of a jazz-fusion/ hip-hop group called Funk Friday, I have had the opportunity to discover Baltimore’s music scene. We originated from Goucher College in Towson, Maryland, playing shows at different events at the college. Soon enough, we began performing at different venues in Baltimore; some being small restaurants where spoken-word poetry was recited over an improvised song, and other venues where there were three to five different bands playing for an hour each on a large stage. For certain shows, we would team-up with a DJ/ video editor who would project a montage of images and movie clips that would swirl and change constantly as we played our songs. We have also collaborated with other artists for performances where three or four different singer/ rappers would sing over top of our original material or our arrangements of their songs.
In New York, I have also collaborated with various musicians, whether at a weekly open mic show or in a studio setting where I am recording a guitarist or rapper. Last summer, I was the keyboardist for a group called Rayce, playing at a variety of different open mic shows in White Plains with aspirations to play shows in New York City. I quickly found that it is extremely difficult and competitive to break into New York City’s music scene, as some venues receive over a hundred emails a week from bands that are trying to play one show at their venue.
Aside from teaching pianos lessons in Baltimore and performing live with my group, I have been working with a rapper on songs that rely on my knowledge of recording techniques. We have recently been sharing these recordings with friends and professionals in the music industry. It has been a lot of fun to meet and perform with an array of different musicians in Baltimore and New York, each with their own definitive style. It is their styles that have inspired me and brought me to where I am today, as a music teacher who hopes to bring inspiration to you someday. Sign up for piano lessons in Baltimore and let’s make music together!

About Gabrielle B.

In a half hour or hour, I will focus on the positive and aspects of your playing that need improvement, with an enthusiasm that will develop your love of the instrument as much as your technical ability. This isn't to say technique will be neglected; all my students will be required to play scales and other exercises, which will probably take about 20% of the lesson time.

A dollar is minute is a very decent compensation which I don't make as an engineer with 7 years of college education. But unfortunately that didn't inspire enough professionalism in Gabbi. Maybe she reserves her professionalism for few people and not for everyone.

During the first lesson, I will discuss with the student about their personal goal. I would like to see what the students have been working on and I will suggest materials that will help the students to develop their musicianship.
My lessons are usually pretty laid back. However, I do expect student to come with some preparation.
I believe that strong foundation is very important for young children. Ear training, sight-reading, music theory, and techni

My fundamental approach to playing and teaching piano follows a principle enunciated by the legendary Glenn Gould: "We do not play the piano with our fingers but with our mind." I focus on the mental and conceptual aspects of interpretation at the piano -- not to the exclusion of the physical component, but stressing that bringing these physical actions under conscious control is the key to success at the keyboard.

I've been teaching piano for over 8 years. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to read music and play simple songs and as time goes on you'll be able to play songs in any genre and style that you so choose. I specialize in classical piano and accompanying (especially musical theatre), typically using the Piano Adventures books, but depending on the age and level the repertoire will be adjusted! I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!
About Rachel
Hi! My name is Rachel, and I have been teaching lessons professionally for over 10 years now. My primary instruments are voice and piano, and I also teach music theory/ear training/musicianship skills. I earned my degree in vocal performance from James Madison University, where I taught lessons to non-music majors as well as tutored general music for the student population. I am currently getting my masters in voice and pedagogy (teaching) from the Peabody Conservatory. I would describe my teaching style as fun and relaxed, with a strong emphasis on healthy technique. I believe that all students should have a strong technical foundation, and that begins on day one. Genres I teach include classical, musical

While I am an engineer during the week, there is nothing quite like watching your student be able to complete his or her first piece. This is my "fun" job. I started teaching in college several years ago while working as a nanny for several families in Virginia. In 2015 I decided to formally offer lessons alone. It's been a pleasure and success so far with students participating in co
