Why study piano?
The College Board notes "Music students out perform non-music students on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT).
College-bound seniors with coursework or experience in music performance scored 52 points higher on the verbal portion and 37 points higher on the math portion of the SAT than students with no coursework or experience in the arts."
A McGill University study found that pattern recognition and mental representation scores improved significantly for students given piano instruction.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
A quality 88 key instrument, preferably an acoustic piano. Sorry - this program does not accept keyboards. A bench, adequate lighting and a metronome
