Unsure if my…read morechild (5-yr old) would enjoy piano or any musical instrument, I signed him up for a trial class - he loved it!

I have studied with Sean for a little over a year. Having studied with many teachers on various…read moreinstruments I can tell you he is of the highest caliber. His attention to detail with my tone, touch and execution of pieces is far greater then most. He's patient, even tempered and most importantly knows how to pull out the best from me. He also teaches on a beautiful steinway grand piano. The environment is very warm and inspiring - if you are anywhere in the upper west and looking for piano lessons - this is the place.

I attended the Manhattan School of Music for six years as a classical piano performance major; the…read moreschool is alright. There are many things it could improve, however. Most of the teachers are absolutely helpful and friendly; I have enjoyed interacting with them. However, some of the instrumental teachers (private teachers) assign an unreasonable load of repertoire, which made my six years of study pretty stressful. My personal piano instructor constantly made me prepare unusually large programs over the period of just 3-4 months for a major performance, competition, or audition, which was extremely stressful and unreasonable. In addition, there is an utter lack of performance opportunities for piano majors. Each student has the right to reserve one recital per season, but that is it. There is an utter lack of performance opportunities for piano students; other instrumental majors (and voice students) have many opportunities, including concerts. But piano majors have pretty much nothing, other than chamber performances and a few events. There needs to be far more concerto performance opportunities with orchestra. The concerto competition only allows first place winners to become soloists, which is completely unjust. If you want to prepare students to become performers, you need to give them an environment which simulates the concert pianist's career, which means regular performances, especially with orchestra. I would personally organize far more concerto competitions for pianists and award far more students to solo with orchestra. The school needs to do a better job of preparing students for the real world; its curriculum is outdated and needs innovation. There needs to be much more done to train piano majors how to teach, and give them actual work opportunities. There also needs to be far more emphasis on contemporary music; why are we constantly forcing students to play Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, and the old classics? We need contemporary music, music that will appeal to young audiences.

Don't go to conservatory here!…read more I went and didn't receive all the lessons with my private teacher per semester. Furthermore, the academic classes are a total joke. Administration is more focused on political posturing than running an educational institution. The student facebook page is jammed with how the registrar doesn't distribute class schedules until the first day of the semester, is rude, etc. Total waste of money!

It's been a while since I've written a review and I feel compelled to do so for Nikokids…read more My youngest son has been attending Nikolai's class since 5 months old! He is turning 4 in a couple of months and we absolutely adore Nikolai. My son loves his class, naturally gravitates toward him even at a young age. His classes are interactive to both children and caregivers. His philosophy on including adults to join in the singing/dancing with the children during class time is on point with how I feel. The songs/activities are very age and developmentally appropriate to help with speech. It's been a tough year and a half for everyone and Nikolai did everything he could (on line classes, and outdoors classes) to keep things going. While it's not always easy, he always give out a positive vibe in his emails and through his interactions with the children. We wish him the very best! *heart

Before you book this camp, you should be aware of 2 things: This is really not a camp for older…read morekids. It skews towards 4-8 at the oldest. Average age is about 6. Second, they have an extremely rigid cancellation policy - once you enroll, unless you cancel with more than 2 weeks notice you will get no refund on the full booking fee. My daughter woke up with a fever and tested positive for Covid the morning of camp and we obviously decided not to bring her. The camp refused to reschedule or even offer a 50% discount on a future session. I'd recommend checking out School of Rock instead.

After completing the online inquiry, I was contacted by Tracy in less than 24 hours via email and subsequent follow up phone call. Within 2 weeks I started lesson with Rita ( a classically trained pianist), who is reliable, positive, a good teacher and encouraging.
