Sharon Music Academy is famous for its piano program. Not only because our students have won many local, national, and international music competitions and have been featured in the press and on TV, but because of how much joy piano brings into our students' lives and how well they play at home and at the school concerts and how proud it makes their parents. The better the students become, the more fun and enjoyment they get from music, and they carry a love for the instrument throughout their whole life. Our students play with the orchestra, perform in ensembles and bands, accompany choirs, and direct musicals. The piano lessons they receive at our Academy build a solid foundation, which helps our students explore different music styles -from classical to jazz, blues and rock. For the quality of our piano program, Sharon Music Academy was chosen for the Steinway Educational Partner Program and our Music Director is a Steinway Teacher and 2023 inductee into the Steinway Teacher Hall of Fame.
The lessons we provide are tailored to the needs of each student, his/her musical interests, and objectives in music. We design practice routines for each student individually, exercising different areas of music (instrument technique, sound, intonation, rhythm, harmony, melody, and form, improvisation, sight-reading, ear training, etc.). Our regular piano program provides a structured approach to music education with an emphasis on mastering a piano. All lessons are taught by actively performing artists to make sure you learn from the best. Our instructors have many years of experience teaching children and adults, and they are passionate about passing on their skills to others. Whatever your goals are we can help you.
We also offer preparation for ABRSM and RCM Exams. ABRSM and RCM are the world's leading providers of music assessments. Preparation for these exams is a great way to get a structured musical education and ABRSM diplomas and RCM certificates are internationally recognized levels of proficiency in music.
"Jolly Keys" program is created as a comprehensive introduction to piano and gives children between ages 4 and 5 and their parents a taste of what music can bring into their lives and prepares children for private music lessons. Children learn to understand musical "vocabulary", and develop imagination as well as their own relationship with the music. The classes involve singing, elementary note reading, introduction to the basics of the keyboard, music history, and rhythm development. The course also focuses on general coordination and refining motor skills necessary for playing any instrument.
