Weekly Piano Lessons in Marlton, NJ

Gregory offers weekly piano lessons to students from ages five to adult for beginners to advanced at his studio in Marlton, NJ. Lessons are in thirty, forty five, or sixty minute sessions once per week. Beginners will learn the language of music including how to read musical notation, terminology, understanding the mechanics of the instrument, basic music theory and developing technique with the use of scales and other technical works. More advanced students will refine their technique with rapid scales in double thirds and double sixths in four octaves. Arpeggios with triads, seventh chords, and octaves are also an essential part of finger agility in order to perform the most virtuosic passage work. Repertoire covered will include Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Modern pieces with an understanding of performance practice based on the time period.
