Pianoforte Music

Don’t be afraid! It’s just Staff-hands!

I’m a big fan of tactile learning. Touching, drawing, and interactive play can all be a part of how we start to learn about written music.

Before the music staff there was the hand! So, let’s use it! #piano #pianoteacher #patterns #staffhands #musicstaff

My goal this week has been to dump online different ways to work on memorizing the seven letters of the musical alphabet.

For whatever reason I was feeling a little Stranger Things vibe. Can you find all the word references in my post? 😆

Nothing is stranger than seeing the alphabet with a different start letter. Don’t conform to the notion that there’s only one way. Be it forward, backward, right side up or upside down, learn to see these seven characters in any form. #abcdefg #music #pianoteacher #piano

I promise this is a different video. It was harder! 😅 Playing, AND singing, AND signing, AND not loosing track. 😆

If you enjoy singing I highly encourage singing when working on the musical alphabet. Bonus cool points if you can sing and sign. ❤️ Metronome set at 80bpm Feel free to ask questions or request a follow-up video. #music #piano #pianoteacher #abcdefg #signlanguage

Continuing to learning about the musical alphabet.

Here is one of many ways to study your musical alphabet forward and backwards. Sign language is optional but always cool! ❤️ Metronome is set at 80bpm. Feel free to ask questions or request a follow-up video. #music #piano #pianoteacher #abcdefg #signlanguage

My goal this year is to rebrand from Pianoforte Music to My Music Studio. Along with that, I am diving into the world of online content.

This is my first educational video. Please take a moment to watch… or make your kids watch… or your grandparents. Shoot! I don’t care. Let’s all learn music together.

Let’s start from the very beginning. A very good place to start. If you have the PATIENCE (ew, gross word) If you possess the CURIOSITY (ooo, better word) Try your 🧠 at the musical alphabet. Feel free to ask questions or request follow up videos. #mymusicstudio #pianoteacher #abcdefg #music #piano

I sing with a professional choir called Millennial Choirs and Orchestra. We have a patriotic concert at the Meyerson Symphony Center on Saturday, April 27. I want to invite my PC neighbors to come and enjoy! Tickets can be found through www.millennial.org

MCO consists of five choirs: pre k, elementary, middle school, high school, and adults (ME!). If you have never heard a group of pre k sing with a full orchestra back up, you haven’t lived/cried. ❤️ 😭

Live patriotic music like this is something that will stay with you forever. 🇺🇸 🎶
