The Shoreline Piano School is dedicated to providing quality piano instruction for our community. Music enriches the lives of everyone; so we offer lessons for children, young adults, and adults. 

We strive to make piano lessons as enjoyable as possible, while ensuring the musical education is first-rate.  Our faculty has years of experience working with students of all ages.  We take special care of our students, individualizing each lesson program to meet the needs of each student.

Overall Goals for Students of Shoreline Piano School:

        • Basic piano/keyboard technique
                  Fundamentals such as proper posture and correct hand position lay the
                  foundation for successful pianoplaying. 
       
        • Music theory
                Note reading and identification, key signatures, note durations,
       
        • Sight-reading
                Applying the lessons of music theory to written bodies of work.  For example,
                the student will be able to pick up sheet music by Bach or Billy Joel and play.
       
        • Playing in various styles: classical, jazz, blues, etc
                We take the fundamentals and tailor them to the students interests – be it
                Beethoven and Chopin; Scott Joplin and David Brubeck; Fats Domino and
                Ray Charles; or Elton John to the Beatles to Alicia Keys
       
        • Improvisation
                Taking chord structures and developing your own melodies.
       
        • Ear training
                Training your ear to differentiate rhythms and pitches.




With these goals in mind we have developed  several lesson programs.
