2024-2025 School Year Announcements

Happy Friday, everyone, and welcome back!

Just some announcements:

This September, I'm amazed to be celebrating my 30th year of teaching piano (and 28th year running my studio). It's a stark reminder of how time flies. I'm deeply grateful to be able to continue my first love and passion, music, and for all my incredible students and their dedication.

Kindly note, effective September 1st, 2024, the studio schedule is as follows:

Mondays: 5PM-7PM

Tuesdays: 6PM-7:30PM

Wednesdays: 6PM-7:30PM

Thursdays: 6PM-9PM

Saturdays: 9AM-11AM

Our second annual Christmas Recital will be held on Sunday, November 17th, 2024, at 1 p.m. More details will follow as the date approaches. (Psst, kids, start thinking of your pieces!).

Lastly, the studio will be closed from November 24th, 2024 to November 30th, 2024. Enjoy the extra week off (but please continue to practice)!

Looking forward to another wonderfully musical year ahead!

Studio Upgrades...Again!

Hello everyone,

I hope you all had a great summer!

I just wanted to let you know that the studio has purchased two (yes, TWO!) new pianos: a Kawai ND21 for the studio and a Kawai K400 for recitals.

It was sad to part ways with the old Schumann piano, which had been greatly used for the last 12 years. I am grateful that she found a new owner who will continue to enjoy it for many years to come!

A million thank yous to Brent Wirth at Merriam Music for facilitating the upgrades!

Please be advised that the studio remains open for students wishing to continue lessons. Please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your schedule.

And for students doing their RCM exam this session, we wish you the best of luck!

Mom's Update

Mom has been trying her best to recover. She remains in ICU at this time. We are all hoping for her to be able to come back home as soon as possible.

I will continue to keep everyone updated. On behalf of my family, we thank you all for your well-wishes, understanding and support.

Studio Announcement

Hello everyone,

 

I hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year.

 

Unfortunately for us, the last few weeks were extremely stressful as our mother has been in the ICU since mid-December last year. Sadly, we do not know what will happen, so we are taking it day-by-day and wanted to advise everyone that there may be last-minute cancellations.

 

We apologize for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding and support at this time.
