Eight of my wonderful Rising Stars traveled to the Piano Monster Festival in Topsham on Saturday. They practiced with an orchestra of pianos throughout the day, played some competitive Dutch Blitz during breaks, and put on a fabulous concert to top it all off. I am so proud of these kids!

🎹 Hey future piano stars (and parents of future stars!)🌟

Do you want to see if your student enjoys piano before sinking a lot of money into it?💰

Is your family crazy busy so you need a more convenient way for your kids to learn piano?

Over the past 30 years, as I’ve taught dozens of piano students in the Midcoast area, I’ve heard those same concerns over and over.

This made me think of a really cool and affordable option that’s also super convenient and personal. Imagine your student learning the same material I teach in private lessons, but at their own pace, using video content I create. Plus, in-person Open Key Sessions would allow them to share music with piano friends, get help, and stay accountable.

Well, let’s make this a reality!💥 To kickstart this venture, my studio, Rising Star Piano, is opening up a brand-new Keys Membership for a few founding members, and this is your chance to jump in early! If someone you know has been wanting to learn piano, now is the perfect time.

For the kids:
🎵 Fun video lessons you can watch anytime
🎵 In-person meetups
🎵 A friendly piano crew to cheer you on

For the parents:
✨ Flexible learning — watch anytime, attend in-person when you can
✨ A founding member rate of $50/month (less than one private lesson) — locked in for life!
✨ High-quality video instruction + personal teacher access
✨ Supportive local & online community

This is your chance to help shape something new and exciting in our beautiful Midcoast. If this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, please reach out, and I’ll send you the details.

🚪Doors close for the launch price August 31 — DM me to grab your spot!

Let’s make music together!

Piano is the luckiest place to be! 🍀 Group lessons for the last week of the term are a blast! We played some 12 Bar Blues and then Music Spoons.
