Technology
Piano lessons at C4R are one hour long each week and incorporate the use of technology.
Half of the lesson time is spent at the piano using traditional piano methods. The other half is spent in the technology lab. Here, students practice their pieces using software such as Home Concert Xtreme, which alerts them to wrong notes and increases the fluidity of their sight reading. Students can also do ear training and theory games utilizing online programs such as Music Learning Community and Music Ace. Students interested in composition can write out their pieces using Finale. The favorite games of C4R students are the Music History Games!
