Studying piano performance with Dr. Stravinsky has been a very pleasant life changing experience to me. The piano education I have been receiving from Mr. Stravinsky can be described as regular, inspiring, and personalized. His down to earth teaching style and enormous patience to me as an adult student make me believe all my dreams of piano performance are achievable. You will definitely experience the difference of being taught by someone who is a great music educator and meanwhile a brilliant concert pianist.
