“I've been taking piano lessons with Lydia for the past nine months and it's the highlight of my week! Lydia is an incredibly talented pianist and a gifted teacher. As an adult beginner, it was important to find a teacher who could help me progress at a reasonable pace. It's so fulfilling to go from struggling to read a piece of music to playing an entire song. Lydia is patient but motivating; she offers constructive feedback that leads to deeper learning and skill development. I've referred my best friend to Lydia and we're now learning a duet together! If you want to learn the gift of playing the piano, and all of the joy it brings, Lydia and Tribeca Music are the absolute best! -Taylor

At Tribeca Music we offer music lessons with a variety of instruments! This makes it convenient for students who wish to study more than one instrument, or for families who want to pursue different instruments.
