The manager also stated, “Most of our students get an opportunity to gain their performance skills through yearly concerts held in professional concert halls and on the finest piano brands. We develop their piano skills by working on the three fundamental areas of piano playing simultaneously – technique, mind, and heart and soul. The technique focuses on developing their finger strength, agility, and independence. Based on every student’s current level of progress, we give them specially developed piano exercises and other essential technical work.”
European Piano Academy’s piano classes in Sydney also involve the mental aspect, which develops the speed of reading and playing the music score and works on increasing the student’s attention span, focus, concentration, and memory. Training on the aspect of heart and soul focuses on unlocking the creative side of every student through expressing feelings and emotions while playing the piano. The teachers work on the imagination and emotional contexts of music. The academy’s teaching methodology for adults mainly concentrates on the general technique, learning to recognize and read the notes and rhythms, understanding tonality, grasping the concept of harmony, and different musical forms.
