Piano Lessons For All Ages
If you’ve never played an instrument before, piano is always a great place to start since the piano keyboard is designed just like the musical staff, which makes it easier to learn to read music.
Our piano lessons start with a traditional foundation in order to learn the basics of the instrument, including rhythms, note names, the musical alphabet, techniques, and dynamic and expression markings. This fundamental basis in our piano lessons prepares the student to either continue musical training in classical piano or any other piano genre that the student might be interested in i.e. Jazz, Pop, Rock, R&B, Blues, Improv, Gospel, Contemporary etc.

How Do Piano Lessons Work at Joe Ferrante Music Academy?
At the Joe Ferrante Music Academy, each lesson has three major components. The first segment is devoted to last week’s lesson assignment where the student gets a chance to demonstrate what they’ve worked on. The second component is time spent on technical development and music theory training. Students are taught how to read music, increasingly complex rhythms, note interval recognition, ear training, and chord construction. The third component is introducing the next assignment and teaching the student the important elements of their new song(s).
"My daughter has attended this academy for over three years. She has made wonderful progress. Furthermore, her musical development has improved her academic development. She achieved Principle Honor Roll all three trimesters this year. We couldn't be more pleased with Joe Ferrante Music Academy."
