Forte Music Studio

This girl pops up in my feed on the regular - she has so much music in her:) Elise just completed her 3rd piano exam in 9 months... L2 in May, L3 in Aug and L4 in Jan - pretty incredible right?! Not a typical agenda, but with the support of a dedicated mamaand alot of hard work, they put their quarantine time to good use.... Not sure if you can tell, but she's spunky and sassy and loves a little jazz in her music mix. #practicemakesprogress #pianogirl #pianostudent #learningpiano #pianolove #pianoplayer #grandpiano @karmonhelmle

So I found this in the living room... my heart is beaming. Love that this little 6yo is sounding things out, AND making lists :) #justlikehermama Seems like a pretty good plan to me - what's on your list today? #makealist #makeaplan #sounditout #checkitoff #practice #practicemakesprogress #6yogirl #violinpractice #proudmama

B A C K I N - S T U D I O So happy for lessons to resume back in-person, we missed y'all. Although lessons were technically allowed these last few weeks, we wanted to wait for the numbers to come down.... Feeling great about welcoming all our Forte Families back, how do you love our new letter sets by @littlewstudio ? Can't wait to greet you with all the inspiring musical messages as you come in - or a good laugh. Send in your requests for the wall and we will post them proudly! #welcomebackbaby #inperson #musicstudiolife #wemissedyou

Fun with Form Which one's your favourite? To play or to eat?!... I love the Development Section of the Sonata Form There seems to be lots going on there. So well depicted @graceleestudios ! #musicalforms #musictheory #cookiesmakeeverythingbetter

Congrats impossible musicians We had 23 pianists complete the #musicianimpossiblechallenge To acknowledge their commitment and hard work, they each received a small prize bag containing a hot chocolate bombfrom @tendegreeschocolate. Can't wait to see some of the videos come back of the bombs in action! Did I mention the in-house homemade marshmallows, or the decadent chocolate ganache inside?! #yum This was a very motivating exercise that students, parents and teachers all enjoyed. A great break in routine - thanks again @inspiredpiano.ca for organizing.

Most people would first notice Taylor Swift, but I'm sure all pianists would agree that the moss covered grand with water pouring out of its' belly is the what grabs our attention. Do you love it? Does it evoke fantasy and inspire dreamlike melodies? Or does it make you cringe with worry for the instruments' wooden frame ... At last nights #americanmusicawards Swift was just named Artist of the Year, Favorite Female Pop/Rock Artist, and she also took home Favorite Music Video for 'Cardigan', which she also directed (and from which this image was taken). Whether you love her music or not, she is a prolific songwriter who composes from the heart. If you could play any one piece in this mystical forest setting, what would you choose?? #keithjarrett #improvise #chopin #faure #beethoven #rachmaninoff #ballad

RP@kennaburima "...Cease your movement. Stop. Rest. What I love about musicsilence. This isn’t a paradox but rather what I believe gives sound its meaning. We know sound through silence and silence through sound...Could we not define music to simply be patterns of sound and silence?... For anyone who has meditated, the energetic state of silence is filled with information. Silence isn’t empty but full and how we capture and then communicatesilence brings us to the realm of... symbols... Here we have the symbol we use to denote silence, the rest. This is a quarter rest to be exact, a musical symbol that tells us that for a certain amount of measured time, we rest. I love that built into the system of musical notation is the concept of rest. Here. Cease your movement. Stop. Rest. #takeabeat #musicislife #rest #therest #thequarternoterest

#pianogoals #musicianimpossiblechallenge Love that her first goal is to learn and play a piece for her best friend ... And that she wants to play a glissando Jody Ilona Hill
