Private Instruction
Singin’ In the Kitchen: Vocal Instruction
Sessions are fun, meaningful and energetic—focusing as much on style, intention and character as they do on technique (breath control, posture, resonance, vibrato, etc.) For beginner to advanced students, professional instruction in the Kitchen is engaging for young students as well as the young at heart! To find out more about our vocal instructors, visit Our Instructors page.
Individual lessons, all ages: 30 minute and 60 minute time slots.

Tickling the Ivories: Piano Instruction
Kitchen Music instructors have the talent and skill (and patience!) to help the budding pianist in your family–young or old–discover the joy of adding music into your life. For younger students, basic skills (posture, hand position, reading music, chord progressions and an introduction to a repertoire from the classics to contemporary tunes) to intermediate or advanced players (music theory, improvisation, jazz, boogie woogie, or the good ol’ twelve-bar blues are a few of possible areas of study).
Learning basic mandatory skills mainly through contemporary popular tunes is how the lessons stay fresh and engaging–particularly for the young ones. For those who want to study the classics, we are also able to help students prep for RCM exams/University auditions as well. For beginners as well as advanced students, this is your chance to sit with the best and learn to play. Visit Our Instructors page for more info.
Individual lessons, all ages: 30 minute and 60 minute time slots
