​​The Tools You Need to Succeed



​
​Being a great musician begins with the will and desire to succeed. If you are committed to following your dreams you are already on the way!
​
You will need
a piano: acoustic or touch sensitive, 88 keys [the studio musicians may use less keys], pedals and a metronome.
Smaller children will need a height adjustable bench or high cushions. 



​
​Please note that the more advanced students will need access to an acoustic piano in order to practice and develop the nuances of touch in order to add intricate details and color to their sound..

Other basics: good lighting, a blank notebook, assigned sheet music and books, pencils and crayons for highlighting and emphasizing parts in written music, and a video recorder to watch yourself progress.
