Piano Lessons

AMS Music Centre is pleased to provide expert tuition on the piano in Bentleigh East, Mount Waverley and surrounding suburbs of Melbourne.

The piano is an acoustic, stringed musical instrument. It is played using a keyboard. Most modern pianos have a row of 88 keys (52 white keys and 36 shorter black keys).

The piano is widely employed in classical, jazz, traditional and popular music for solo and ensemble performances, accompaniment, and for composing, songwriting and rehearsals.

Modern acoustic pianos have two basic configurations, the grand piano and the upright piano, with various styles of each. There are also specialized and novelty pianos, electric pianos based on electromechanical designs, electronic pianos that synthesize piano-like tones using oscillators, and digital pianos using digital samples of acoustic piano sounds.
