Studio Philosophy
Studio Philosophy
Kubota Music Studio strives to provide its students, of all ages and levels, a curriculum designed to fit each individual.
Neither technical nor musical aspects of piano playing will be neglected during a students's experience, and opportunities will be abundant.
Additionally, students will receive ear training from an early stage in order to ensure expertise in the realm of Music Theory.
Collaboration amongst beginner students and their family members or teacher is encouraged for those who would prefer to ease into the performance world before delving into solo works.
