WE EMPHASIZE TWO KEYS TO REACHING YOUR POTENTIAL AS A MUSICIAN

NO. 1

Private instruction is the foundation for musical development. Your teacher will guide you through music fundamentals, sight reading, and the music you choose to explore, whether that is popular music, classical, or jazz. Developing good practice habits is essential, and will be addressed frequently during lessons. 

NO. 2

Community performance is the vital second part of the curriculum. Every student performs in recitals. Those students who are ready to share more are grouped together to form duos, trios, and eventually full bands. The stage motivates students artistically and socially; it incentivizes consistent practice.

Today we want to introduce you to our teacher, Mikea LaPierre. Mikea was born in Dallas, Texas and raised in southwest Michigan. She discovered a passion for music in her early teen years, and began to teach herself piano, guitar, composing, and songwriting. Mikea earned a Bachelor's degree in Music from Eastern Michigan University, studying piano with Dr. Joel Schoenhals. While at Eastern, Mikea performed extensively with several ensembles, including EMU Women's Choir and EMU jazz combos, and worked both as a piano accompanist for other instrumentalists and as a solo pianist. She frequently performed original songs for piano and voice at coffee shops, restaurants, and other venues. Her most notable performance was her senior degree recital, in which she performed memorized pieces by Liszt, Chopin, and Rachmaninoff, a 4-movement ragtime duet by Bolcom, and an original composition. 🎶🎵🎶 Mikea loves working with people of all ages and skill levels. She has two years of experience working in early childhood classrooms and has a year of experience teaching private music lessons to children and adults. She is currently freelancing and teaching music in the Dallas area. 🎹 🎸 🎤
