So do you think it was:

Simple things like good lighting can make your piano practice SO much more enjoyable!

Siblings playing together - instant heart melt ❤️

Changing the “teeth” of the piano. Did you know that ivory was still used in making piano keys until 1989?!

Sasha Kern is our amazing guitar and piano teacher - his students progress at an incredible speed and perform amazingly at the student recitals!

Running small group violin classes during the summer is a lot of fun, especially for the adult students!

Oh how much we love when our students dress well for recitals! Makes performances even more special!

Glad we were able to accommodate Dmitry’s Columbia University students who lost their an opportunity to perform there due to protest related restrictions. Students chose to play in a small room for a “salon” type of experience. Everyone did great! Columbia University

The theramin might be one of the most unusual musical instruments. Played by waving your hands in the air without touching it, this electronic musical instrument was invented in 1928!

This book was written by one of the sons of the famous J. S. Bach. It only covers the music written during and before the Baroque era (so no Mozart or Beethoven or anyone later) and it’s 450 pages long!

This might be the oldest musical instrument that exists: a flute made out of mammoth bone dating back to 30,000-37,000 years old!
