THOUGHTS ON TEACHING AND PLAYING PIANO
Welcome!
I’m Shannon Keeler, a pianist, and piano educator. I’ve been playing piano for over 45 years, teaching piano for over 30 years, and running a community music school for over 25 years.
I’d like to share my insights, observations, and hard-earned knowledge about piano with you.
