Piano Lessons - Franklin Music Academy

Taking piano lessons in Austin is the best choice for students that enjoy independence and solo-performance. Both piano and guitar lessons are our most popular music lessons for kids. Piano lessons at our music school have created opportunities for our Austin piano students to compete in the University Interscholastic League (UIL) at the high school level receiving highest scores and move on to state competition.

Piano lessons are geared towards the more serious student and require a daily practice routine. Each student follows a customized lesson plan, tailored to the student’s individual strengths, challenges, and interests. Regardless of their musical preferences, the emphasis of instruction for each beginning pianist is on musical literacy.  Achieving this goal will easily set students up for a blossoming relationship with music for the rest of their lives.

As each student progresses, they will be encouraged to participate first in studio recitals, and then, as they mature, in local festivals and competitions.  Public performance is by no means a required component of the program, but it does give each student something to work towards and can provide a great sense of personal accomplishment.

Private piano lessons are weekly and 30 or 40 minutes in length.  There are two studio recitals a year: a piano and concert recital. Piano students may have an opportunity to play in both recitals giving them a well-rounded experience.
