Meredith Hudson rated Alex
Harlem, Manhattan
6 months ago
I was huge introverted guy who had a massive stage fear and performing infroming infront of others. Alex changed all that when I took his classes in Harlem. He made me overcome my fear first and then said a quote" If you believe yourselves, you won't care what criticisers say" which entered into my heart like a blade. I highly recommend him to the people who has stage fear like me.
Cohen Ross rated Nguyen
Washington Heights, Manhattan
7 months ago
During covid day, I was really afraid that my daughter would get addicted to mobile and that's when I took a risk of finding a Onine Piano teacher for her. To my surprise her teacher Nguyen in Washington Heights made a impossible progression during that time. And she still is her teacher. she changed everything and taught her piano and changed her style of playing. she even assisted her in the advanced level

Manhattan's Keys: From Broadway to Blue Note

Manhattan’s story can be told on the piano. From the grandeur of a concert grand piano on the stage of Carnegie Hall to the well-loved upright piano in a Greenwich Village jazz club, the island hums with the instrument’s sound. The history of the piano in this city is a journey through culture, innovation, and artistry. The relationship between Manhattan and the piano is inseparable; the sound of this keyboard instrument is the city's true soundtrack.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, New York City was the epicentre of the American piano industry, with over 200 piano factories producing thousands of instruments. Firms like the New York Piano Manufacturing Company, established in 1837, laid the groundwork for the city's dominance in crafting this beautiful keyboard. This era saw the rise of Tin Pan Alley, where the sound of the piano was constant, as songwriters pounded the keys to compose the next great American hit. The piano became the heart of popular music, its notes echoing from publishers' offices and into every home. The upright piano, a more compact alternative to the grand piano, made this versatile instrument accessible to more families. This legacy of piano craftsmanship continues just across the river, where every Steinway grand piano is still built with meticulous, time-honoured techniques.
The journey of the piano through Manhattan is also a tour of musical genres. For lovers of classical music, the island is home to legendary venues where the world's greatest pianists have performed. The majestic grand piano commands the stage, a powerful vessel for the works of masters. This is the same powerful piano that fuels the stunning productions on Broadway, where the orchestra’s keyboard section drives every soaring ballad and explosive dance number. The piano is essential to the theatrical magic of New York.
Then there is the revolutionary sound of the jazz piano. Head downtown to clubs like the Blue Note or the Village Vanguard, and you'll find the most innovative musicians in the world letting their fingers fly across the eighty-eights. Here, the piano tells a different story, one of improvisation, soul, and rhythm. From bebop to fusion, the sound of the jazz piano has defined the city’s after-dark identity for decades. This specific type of piano playing requires incredible skill. Learning to play this kind of piano is a unique journey.
For anyone inspired to learn, Manhattan offers endless motivation. The first step is often finding the right instrument, whether it’s a digital piano for a compact apartment or a restored upright piano with its history. Understanding the mechanics of this stringed instrument is the foundation. The key to progress is consistent practice and developing an ear for the nuances that make this instrument so expressive. Listen to the masters, find a great teacher, and let the city itself be your guide. From the polished keys of a concert piano to the soulful ivories of a dimly lit club, the piano is waiting to be explored. This elegant instrument is more than just wood and wire; it's a piece of New York's soul, and learning to play the piano is a way to connect with the city's artistic core. The journey of learning the piano here is unlike anywhere else.
