Leni Bogat Artists
About
I am a classically trained musician who studied with top professionals in my field in New York, Paris, and at the Conservatoire de Fontainebleau in France. I have been a conductor, a pianist, and a composer, and am now retired. I have also been a writer on musical subjects, a music critic and a coach and manger of professional musicians.
I teach piano to those who want to achieve a high level of proficiency at the piano. My lessons incorporate tone production, interpretation, sight reading, and theory. I teach a piano technique that facilitates beautiful playing and avoids the all too common repetitive motion injuries to which so many serious amateurs and professionals are prone. And I believe that hours of mind numbing piano exercise only result in teaching a student to play unmusically.
I have had excellent training, a lifetime of experience, and I am able to communicate in a manner that is understandable to students of all ages and levels of expertise.
If you want to learn to play the piano well, improve your ability to play, or bring existing capabilities to a polished level, you will find in me a teacher eager and able to share skills and understanding acquired over a lifetime spent in pursuit of the beauty of music and the joy it can bring.
