EVDIV 141 - Fundamentals of Piano


Eric Martin
This beginner course provides a comfortable and comprehensive introduction to playing the piano. It is suitable for those who have never played before or for those who want to revisit the instrument and improve their skills. The course is designed to help students enjoy the joy of playing the piano.

Weekly classes will be held in a group keyboard lab setting, with individual attention given to each student’s needs. No prior experience in reading music is required, as the course will focus on developing technical and relaxed approaches to playing repertoire with both hands in just a few short lessons.

Students will learn a diverse range of repertoire from popular, jazz, and classical genres, and will have the opportunity to explore improvisation to enhance their creativity.

Playing the piano is a highly rewarding experience, and this course is perfect for anyone who wants to start their musical journey or improve their existing skills. 

Application is not required for this introductory course.
