Mission Statement:
 
My first priority is to help children grow emotionally, cognitively and socially. Music is the beautiful and challenging medium used to help children grow. Learning a musical instrument presents many challenges and children grow as they face the challenges, break the challenge into smaller steps, and ultimately achieve the goal with their teacher and parents’ mentoring.  I am committed to helping children grow their minds,  their hearts, and their love for music.
 
 
Core Values:
Curiosity – teachers, parents and students learn and grow through curiosity
Challenge – we all grow together through challenges
Creativity –the more we tap into our creativity, the more rich our lives become Consistency – we achieve amazing things through daily acts of committment  
 
 
Comprehensive Program
 
Crescendo music school offers a comprehensive program. I do not offer “piano lessons”. I offer a program that includes group musicianship classes, indiviudal lessons, parent training and feedback, recitals, masterclasses and an acheivement  program (Crescendo Challenge).
 
Five Areas of Musicality Developed in Crescendo's Program
 
Memorized repertoire through the Suzuki approach (allows for listening to tone, developing technqiue and performance even when you don’t have the score with you)  
Reading music (through method books, choice pieces and repertoire)  
Creativity (improvisation and composition)  
Theory (concepts, scales, arpeggios etc)  
Musicianship (artistry, music history etc)
