Free piano lessons
Weekly one-on-one lessons taught by student instructors, from first-time beginners to students working through repertoire. Loaner keyboards for anyone who doesn't have one at home.
A student music initiative
We teach piano for free, play live for people who don't get out to concerts anymore, and build instruments that don't assume you can see or hear them.

Weekly one-on-one lessons taught by student instructors, from first-time beginners to students working through repertoire. Loaner keyboards for anyone who doesn't have one at home.
Our students perform at senior and memory-care centers every month — short, warm, request-friendly sets. It's the part everyone remembers: the residents sing along, and the students learn to play for someone.
Open-source devices and tactile materials so blind and Deaf musicians can learn on the same instrument as everyone else, in the same room, at the same lesson.
In development
Two projects, both early. We're prototyping, testing with the students we already teach, and publishing what works so anyone can build one.
A small device that clips to the front rail of a piano and says the note you just played out loud — quietly, in your ear, so it's a lesson aid and not a distraction to the room.
It ships alongside braille key labels and braille-embossed primers, so a blind student can find middle C by touch, learn the shape of the keyboard, and read along with the material everyone else has on the stand.
A phone app that turns what a student plays into visible time: a pulsing beat, bars that land on the beat or just off it, and a running picture of whether they're rushing or dragging.
Timing is the hardest thing to teach a Deaf or hard-of-hearing student through a hearing teacher's ears. Putting it on a screen next to the music makes it something you can both point at.
Neither device is for sale yet. If you teach, build, or would use one, we'd rather hear from you now than after we've designed it wrong.
“The residents ask for the same three songs every month. My students used to find that boring. Now they fight over who gets to play them.”
