Greetings! Welcome to this brand spankin' new website! After years of scrambling to teach piano lessons all over New York City and then some time doing the same in Connecticut (although admittedly a more low-key scramble after Manhattan subway life), I am so excited to be back in my hometown of Saint Paul to open the piano teaching studio I've been dreaming about (and studying very hard for). I know from firsthand experience that the opportunities available to young musicians in the Twin Cities are endless, and I'm so looking forward to exploring them with my own students as they journey through the magical world of classical music. (Plus, the writer in me could not be more inspired that the F. Scott Fitzgerald House is just around the corner.)

There are still some logistics to finalize, like putting the finishing touches on the studio policies and getting my beloved baby grand tuned and attended to, but summer session lessons are set to begin next week. These lessons will be on a flexible week-by-week basis to account for busy and sometimes unpredictable summer schedules. The more official 14-week fall session will begin on Tuesday, September 5th, and will be followed by our first Winter Recital in December.

Please contact the studio today if you have any questions or are interested in registering for lessons. Lessons truly are for all ages and levels - my students range from ages 2 to 90! If you want to learn, I am eager to help.

2017 Spring Recital at Storrs Congregational Church

While excited about this new venture, I am also very dearly missing all of my Connecticut students, who performed beautifully in our Spring Recital only last month - works by Burgmüller, Czerny, Wanhal, Beethoven, and Chopin among others. There are some more photos from our recent activities in the Gallery. I am thinking of them often and wishing them all the best!

Yours in music,

Lillie
