In my piano lessons, I blend sight-reading, empathetic coaching, and expressive musicality to create an engaging and supportive environment for students of all levels. Whether teaching classical piano, grand piano, or electric keyboard, I focus on technique while incorporating fun tech tools like DAWs, metronome apps, and virtual piano apps. With a curriculum tailored to each student's needs, including chord & scale apps and PDF sheet music libraries, I cater to kids, beginners, intermediates, and advanced players alike. My goal is to instill a love for piano in over 100 students, fostering creativity and skill development through personalized, technique-focused lessons.

Before South Fork-based sessions with Sage , my son struggled with tone and articulation. Her technique-driven approach sparked real improvement, and now she’s gearing up to audition for a regional choir.

Being a retired music teacher from Oak Ridge I was very selective about choosing a jazz piano instructor. Bava Melcher proved to be an excellent choice. her beautiful grand piano sets the tone for each lessons and her focus on rhythm has greatly improved my improvisation abilities.
