Congratulations to Liam! Liam recently completed his Level 1 Red Piano Adventures Series and has already started to work from his Level 2A Set! Red is his favorite color! Pancakes and tortellini are his favorite foods. "The Bubble" and "Grumpy Old Troll" were Liam's favorite recent songs he has played. When Liam is not busy playing the piano, he is very busy with other things. He fills his time playing with his cats, reading, Boy Scout activities, playing Xbox, working on logic puzzles and at the ninja gym. Way to go Liam! I am extremely proud of how hard you work!

This event will take place even if we have inclement weather. All guests will have the opportunity to register to win one free family portrait photography session with Stuart Beeby Photography. We cannot wait for the kids and kids at heart to try the different instruments!
Congratulations to Nathan! He has completed his My First Piano Adventures Series! He works with our instructor, Yuki, at the piano each week. We are so proud of Nathan!
Congratulations to Miss Sarah! Sarah completed her 2B set of Piano Adventures! She has already started to work on the 3A set. Sarah's favorite color is turquoise. "Sonatina" and "Banana Boat Song" were here favorite pieces to play recently. Sarah is currently prepping for the 2018 Piano Guild Auditions. She has participated in countless studio recitals and events over her years of playing. When Sarah is not busy playing the piano, she enjoys skiing, softball, drawing and reading the Harry Potter Series. Way to go Sarah!
