Moonlight Sonata Arrangement
I have to admit that I just found an arrangement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata that is teachable for the students that I currently have. I wish I had found this arrangement many years ago, yet I would say that I found it in early this month. The song comes from Piano Pronto, arranged by Jennifer Eklund. The song is created so the students learn the basic tune, yet uses tons of repetition, which is perfect for anyone. Jennifer Eklund creates a version in the key of E Minor,


Piano Music Students Are Loving
So blessed in almost ten years of teaching piano lessons that I will always admit that I'm still learning. The music I've shared with our piano students have certainly changed since we stated ten years ago, yet when you find music that students love and connect with then you know that they are being inspired to play more.

Soul really sticks with me about inspiring others to become who they were created to be. This is a film that we as


Piano Nursery Rhyme Arrangement
One of the may parts of learning to play piano is learning the notes on the Grand Staff. Over the years I've played games and showed students songs to help them know the notes well. I will say that currently most of our students are learning C, D and E in the Bass Clef. Usually I find short songs that use that will have C, D or E with basic rhythms to help the students learn the notes well. We will spend time reviewing with games with the new notes. Yet today I decided to cre


Winter Piano Songs
Last week was our students returned to lessons after three weeks off. We had tons of fun reviewing notes on the Grand Staff, rhythms and learning some winter songs. Just wanted to share some new winter songs that I obtained for this year and hope that they will inspire you and your studio. First Winter's Snow by Martin Ceullar, a teacher and composer from Emporia, Kansas. He is a new composer to me, yet while I was picking up the song at our local music store, one of the empl
