About

Welcome to Tazo’s Piano Studio. With five years of experience and ongoing studies at the Manhattan School of Music, I offer piano lessons that focus on effective practice and deep understanding of music. My teaching is all about showing students the smart way to practice, making sure they get the most out of their time at the piano.

I teach techniques that can quickly improve your playing, making difficult pieces more manageable. Whether we’re working on the precision of Bach or the expressiveness of Chopin, my goal is to help you play better and enjoy music more.

I adapt each lesson to fit the student’s pace, breaking things down so that they’re easy to grasp and remember. If a lesson starts to drag, I switch things up to keep it interesting and engaging.

Every student is different, and I match my teaching style to what works best for them—sometimes that means being encouraging and fun, other times it means being straightforward and focused.

Join me at my piano studio for a learning experience where progress and enjoyment go hand in hand.

Ever since I was a little kid I admired classical piano, due to unfortunate turnover of circumstances I was unable to pursue my dreams and embark on this journey as a child. Eventually I tried to break into the world by self-learning practice, mostly by listening to music and copying without sight reading which I couldn’t do. Once I felt confident enough, I decided to apply for local teachers, I saw about dozens of teachers that shut doors right to my face saying it was far too late to get serious about music in the late puberty.

Then I was recommended to Tazo’s studio by my friend. Although Tazo admired work I pulled off myself, he strongly believed as everyone else that it would mean nothing if I did not forget everything and start from scratch, unlike those old school teachers I’ve encountered who couldn’t see that the seed can only thrive nurtured not placed in a cast of shadows.

Tazo gave me an actual plan, challenged me, worked with me diligently and in less than a year I could sight-read swiftly. After 3 years I’m performing not only Chopin which I admired, but also Rachmaninoff even Liszt. Tazo has unique and very down to earth approach that made me fall in love with music even more than I ever was. Undoubtedly inspiring performer himself, he has made hard techniques easy to grasp, and expression of music easy to understand for me. I highly recommend Tazo’s studio to anyone who wants to learn classical piano, and not just to learn but grow!
