Our Classes

Types of Classes

We have structured our courses to suit everyone interested in the piano, from starters to stars.

• Play for Fun - Classical, Popular, Blues
• Play for Exams - All AMEB levels to the concert performance standard

On a serious note...

We teach the Australian Music Examination Board (AMEB) syllabus, including:

• "Piano" - students learn a selection of pieces by the greatest composers from Baroque to the 20th Century and Contemporary Music (from the AMEB syllabus, Preliminary to 8th Grade piano, and post-graduate levels)
  
• "Piano for Leisure" - students choose from classical, modern, jazz, and film scores (from the AMEB syllabus, Preliminary to 8th Grade piano)
  
• Musicianship and Theory.

For your entertainment…

• Modern music for leisure - the course teaches students to play songs by contemporary musicians, such as Elton John, Billy Joel, Burt Bacharach and others. It also teaches a selection of great musical scores, movie themes, love songs and contemporary classics.
• Classics for leisure – the course teaches students to play music by the great composers.

Three levels of Tuition

We offer three different levels of tuition to suit our students and their needs:

• Essential Tuition
• Method Tuition
• Performance Grade Tuition

Which is the best level for you or your child?

Most of our students will be more than adequately covered with our first level, Essential Tuition, which at ESPT is anything but standard. For those who are preparing for exams, scholarships and performances we offer two other categories, Method Tuition and Performance Grade Tuition.
