Piano Lessons
Piano lessons by Jon Steinmeier are theory - and technique - focused, beginning with hand technique, posture, and physical health issues. Scales, chords, and arpeggios are the basis for our beginning technique, as they build strength, agility, independence, and knowledge of keys and harmonies. All students are assigned these rudiments to practice along with potential performance material. Pieces for potential performance are varied, and depend on the student's interest and level of expertise. These may include classical, pop, or jazz literature, or even compositions or arrangements that we have done in the lessons. Other areas of study include chordal analysis, transcription, style study, improvization, and composition. All lessons by Jon Steinmeier are geared toward the students specific goals, and are taught at the student's pace.
