5 Days Left to Register this Go-Round!

May 25, 2026

5 Days Left!

I am keeping registration open in The Music Hub until the end of May. After that, it won't reopen until September.

That means you have 5 days left to register!

Summer is a casual time meant for exploring. It's a great time to try something new or revisit a hobby!

My music-theory based approach to learning piano is the most effective way to make real progress.

It helps you

  • read music fluently
  • play with both hands together
  • understand rhythm
  • use fingering that makes sense

I provide video instruction of music theory concepts as well as detailed demonstration videos of each song, with an overhead view so you can see exactly where I place my fingers. I talk you through the whole piece, through the rhythms, explain the structure of the piece and the whys behind things like fingering.

The video lessons allow you to progress on your own time and at your own pace.

But you also have access to a real, live teacher through weekly "piano labs" which are essentially office hours where you can drop in, ask questions, and get help.

That means you are never left on your own to figure it out when you get stuck!

This combination of theory instruction, song demonstration, and live help gives the best combination for learning at a fraction of the price of private lessons.

I have given private lessons for decades, and I can testify that it is extremely difficult to cover all this important material in even 1hr lessons every week. I have come to the conclusion that creating videos you can watch and rewatch, with access to supplemental live help, is the best way to provide thorough, quality instruction.

Pay for the year in full and receive 4 FREE (30 min.) private online lessons with me to use throughout the year - a $150 value!

Notes from The Music Hub July 13, 2026 What Are Primary Chords? I'm back! I did not send out an email last week because I was traveling to two conferences. In the last few weekly emails, I have been talking about the new module in The Music Hub on Scales & Chords. Chords are derived from scales. Each scale provides a set of notes which can be stacked to create different qualities of chords. In Lesson 3 of this module, I teach the Primary Chords. What are Primary Chords, and why do they have...

Notes from The Music Hub June 29, 2026 What is the Circle of 5ths? I have taught music theory to high school students and college students, as well as to my private students for a long time. And one of the most useful tools is the Circle of 5ths. The Circle of 5ths is a graphic representation of all the keys organized around a circle like the hours on a clock. There are secret hints hidden within the circle that help you to know exactly how many sharps and flats are in each key and what they...

It feels like the beginning of June was forever ago. I have mostly been plugging away at composing and dreading July 1. July 1 is the deadline for many things. I have to have all my syllabi finished and submitted. There are several Calls for Scores to submit to. I also leave on July 2 to head out to the National Association of Teachers of Singing National Conference, then the next weekend to the International Double Reeds Society National Conference. Getting ready for that trip is an ordeal....
