Learn Piano
                             Thank you for visiting Applegate Music in Phoenix, Arizona offering piano
                              instruction for children and adults. Learning a musical instrument comes with many
                              benefits for all ages. I am also testing online teaching via webcam. Visit the
                              Lessons Online page for more information.

                             Studies show that playing a musical instrument helps develop children's minds
                             and keeps adult minds active. No matter what your age, learning music can
                             enrich your life in many ways and developing skill on the piano is an
                             excellent way to gain these benefits.

You may want to learn how to play all periods of classical music or you may want
to learn how to play pop and jazz songs with just chords and melody (Chord
Approach method). Either way, I can help you achieve your goals.

I offer private, customized instruction to children and adults. I also
conduct 3-hour, adult keyboard workshops. Visit the Children or
Adults pages to learn more. I'll be glad to help you or your child
achieve your musical goals. Please contact me for a complementary
introductory session.
