About KeyNotes Music
​
​
KeyNotes offers three programmes for beginning students:
​
-
Little KeyNotes (age 5-6 yrs)
-
KeyNotes Storytellers (age 6+)
-
KeyNotes Play (age 9+)
​
And two continuing levels:
​
-
Connections (age 9+)
-
Foundations 1 and 2
​
Each level consists of a series of workbooks of pieces, tasks and activities centred around a popular story or theme. Children are engaged through singing, listening, composing and performing, and upon reaching the learning objectives, 'graduate' to the next level.
By the end of Foundation 2, students will have developed a solid level of proficiency and understanding and are ready to move on to private lessons and, if they wish, an exam syllabus.

-
The KeyNotes Programme teaches early piano skills to young beginners using touch-sensitive keyboards. Before enrolling, it is recommended that all students have a suitable instrument at home for practice, that is, an acoustic or digital piano with weighted/semi-weighted/touch-sensitive keys. I will be happy to advise if you need help choosing a suitable instrument.

Lessons are invoiced termly in advance and are payable within 4 weeks. An additional $10 Materials Fee is applied per term.
