Enhance your skills with a piano tutor who is knowledgeable in musical expression and theory.

The Student and Tutor focused on piano technique and piece work, reviewing exercises from "A Dozen a Day" and Hannon for rhythm and finger independence. They practiced dynamics and expressiveness in a Beethoven piece, learned a new arm phrasing touch technique, and refined note accuracy and left-hand fingerings in "Journey" and "Hollow Night." The Student was given specific practice assignments and discussed plans for future additional lessons.

The student and tutor worked through advanced piano exercises and etudes, focusing on rhythmic accuracy, articulation, and hand coordination. They addressed specific technical challenges, including finger positioning, hand stretches, and rhythmic interpretation. The session also involved discussing and planning for the student's personal music projects and future lesson scheduling.

Student and Tutor continued practicing a piano piece, focusing on refining rhythm and hand coordination for specific sections on the third and fourth pages. They also extensively reviewed complex sheet music navigation, including repeat signs, first/second endings, and the D.S. al Coda instruction.
