Keyboard Adventures Be sure to ask about this exciting group program for ages 5-6-7. This is a delightful, fun, interactive 6 week program for those younger children not quite ready for one-on-one individual lessons-and for those students already 5, 6 or 7 who need an introductory program for piano and violin. Fall Semester begins on Thursday September 17th at 5 PM.
Performance Events: The dates for Fall and Christmas Performance Events will be announced soon-stay tuned.
Please encourage your young person to press forward to be ready and participate..
Ask your teacher about preparing a song.

Thank You for allowing us to have a part in your children’s music education. We love teaching them!

KEYBOARD Adventures!
Grandstaffpiano.com 215-536-5147 215-983-8104
Keyboard Adventures is an introductory piano method for groups of young beginners, ages 5-6-7, and is an exciting, new alternative to private piano instruction. Lessons present a balance of singing, moving, drumming, writing, and reading activities-together with playing at the keyboard.
Keyboard Adventures is carefully planned and sequenced to meet the developmental needs of the students. The small group of children will learn a collection of songs with associated activities. Singing will encourage tonal development as well as establish a keyboard repertoire. Moving and drumming activities will establish the body as a rhythmic instrument. Keyboard activities will establish technique, repertoire, and application of a musical personality.
A semester of Keyboard Adventures consists of 6 weekly 60-minute group lessons.
Fall Semester begins on Thursday Sept. 18th.
Keyboard Adventures is offered at the GrandStaff Piano Studio in Quakertown, Pa. (215-536-5147) (215-983-8104) on Thursday evenings from 5 to 6 PM.

Happy Summertime!
July 4th week Studio will be closed. 6/29-7/5/2026 Thank You!

Performance Festival Congratulations to all participants! We are so proud of you! Many thanks to everyone for the hard work and practice! The students had a lot of fun performing their music and striving to do their personal best!
Thank you to ALL our volunteers who made the event possible!
The event was a great learning experience and a real blessing!
Reminder If you haven’t yet paid the Performance fees, please add the $15 to the June tuition fee.
Thanks so much for taking care of that!
Fall Performances Selections of music should be taking place now. Be sure to participate in this exciting preparation process so your young person will be aware of your interest and encouragement of their efforts. Don’t miss out on the fun and excitement--be practicing diligently over the summer for our Fall Event. Holiday Performance Concert will tentatively be on Saturday December 5th.
Save the date and mark your calendars!

Summer Lessons We teach year-round and Piano lessons continue as scheduled throughout the summer. Summer is a great time to advance in Piano since homework and sports won’t be making demands on the student’s time. Morning practice is good, leaving the rest of the day for the pool, beach, fishing, etc. Important things get done if they are scheduled!

Vacations: Important- Please let us know when you will be away. The Studio is open all summer (except July 4th week). Our tuition fee schedule does not change, even if you are away for more than one week since we do not charge for extra lessons taught during the year on 5-lesson months.
Thank you for understanding and paying your tuition in a timely manner.

Practice-practice! When you are at home, maintain a regular practice schedule. When you are
away, take along a portable keyboard, flashcards and extra note-speller books. You can have fun and make a game out of using these things. Show interest, be positive and enthusiastic. Offer to take your young person to the Music store and let them shop for Classical or Sacred music pieces—CD or sheet music. It’s inexpensive and your young person will be thrilled. Also, take them to an outdoor band or orchestra concert over the summer or to one of our recitals. Many music venues and theatres have concerts or musicals. Music is such a wholesome and comforting interest for anyone. Take advantage of the ‘lazy days” of summer to experience

some of these outings with your children!

Have a Great Summer and Thank You for your help and support in all of these matters!

We have such a fun time learning. Our goal and mission is to enrich and beautify our student’s lives with the joy of music. Remember, Piano is forever!

We LOVE teaching music to your children!
