Free Taster Piano Lessons in East Dulwich, September 2024

Free Taster Piano Lessons in East Dulwich

We are running an Open Studio session where you can come and meet the teacher, find out about music lessons and have a try of the piano.

Join us for a free taster session which is open to groups of up to 4 musicians at a time that are interested in learning the piano. You can find out what we offer, how lessons work and you can ask any questions to the teacher. They can also let you know how to book in for a 1-to-1 consultation lesson plus give you details of all the current vacancies. Please note this is not an individual piano lesson but more an opportunity to come to our music studio and try out the piano briefly if you like. This session is open to children from age 4+ and adult learners too. Please note this session is not suitable for candidates enquiring about Music Aptitude Tests or Scholarships.
