"In The Garden" Harp Solo
Online Piano Lessons
Convenient • Affordable • All Ages • Any Level
My grandchildren call me "Mimi" and they love to play the piano at my house!
You are invited to join in the fun and learn how to play the piano, too!
I'm so happy to provide "Music With Mimi" online piano lessons to students of all ages and levels, from any location in the world!
We even have a special program for adult piano students - "Piano For Grownups" :-)
For 40+ years, I've taught piano students in their own home, driving house to house in my community - and I still teach this way, but now I'm so pleased to also welcome online students.
Using a music app called "Mooz", we are able to connect remotely and share music lessons from anywhere! We can see and hear each other just as if I'm sitting beside your piano giving you a complete lesson, with demonstrations and personalized attention. The Mooz app is free for my students, and enables multiple video angles so that I can see the student and their hands on the piano, and I can hear them well, and offer the same quality of an in-person lesson. Printable lesson plans and materials are transferred within the app to the student, and parents are updated on assignments and progress after each lesson. In each lesson, we'll cover good technique, proper hand position, music theory, and we'll build a fun repertoire based upon the student's personal goals and musical interests. Online group piano recitals are also an optional opportunity available to all students.
Online lessons are a convenient and affordable way to learn how to play the piano at your own pace, in the comfort of your own home. Click the "Get In Touch" button to schedule a FREE trial lesson today and let's learn some music together!

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" Piano Solo
This laid back, relaxed arrangement of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" was created by Jim Brickman. You can find the sheet music for it HERE. I usually play it to kick off the evening when I'm playing background music for holiday parties. It's definitely a fan favorite. Jim Brickman has some really beautiful Christmas arrangements available for intermediate level pianists. They are easy to learn in a few weeks, but they don't sound beginner-ish...they sound festive and, well...for lack of a better word...Chill. Yes, I am definitely too old to be using the word "chill" in a sentence, unless it's "Please hand me my sweater, I feel a chill coming on."
Wishing you a Merry Musical Christmas!
West Loop Wedding Walk | February 2023
What an amazing time we had at the Fairlie and the West Loop Wedding Walk last weekend!
I played my harp to accompany the enchanting violinist, Tiffany Moore. We serenaded newly-engaged couples as they meandered among the many wedding vendors at the lovely Fairlie Wedding & Event Venue.
I’m so grateful for the opportunity to interact with so many creative & inspiring wedding vendors. “Vendors” doesn’t even feel like the right word - they are ARTISTS!
We were surrounded by incredibly beautiful displays of flowers, tablescapes, photography, fancy food, lovely decor and anything & everything for a gorgeous wedding!

About
I began taking piano lessons at the age of 7, and practiced on an old green upright piano out in the garage.
I played for my first wedding when I was 9 years old. Since that day, I have played hundreds of weddings and special events, and I've taught thousands of piano lessons to students of all ages.
I have never gotten over the awe that music holds for me. Playing the piano is as natural as breathing air to me, and I cannot imagine a day without music.
I taught myself to play the harp when I moved to Chicago in 1996. Chicago is home to one of the world's finest harp makers, Lyon & Healy Harps, and it has been a privilege to own numerous harps carefully crafted by Lyon & Healy.
Enjoying 40+ years of working in the music industry has been the joy of my life. I'm so grateful that I get spend each day working with other musicians, teaching people how to develop the gift of music within themselves, and providing music for life's special occasions.
It has been a marvelous musical journey, and I am forever indebted to Mary Hughes, organist at the Patterson Baptist Church in New York, who saw something in a little 7 year old girl that prompted her to pay for my early lessons. Her generosity was used by God to put me in music ministry, and I am eternally grateful to her and to God for a life full of music!

July 19, 2021 ~WGN "Around Town" visit with Ana Belaval at Evilena's Red Dresser ~ Ana & her crew were amazing and so much fun to work with!
So, I did a thing....I entered an art contest with my little pink, painted piano...and believe it or not...I won! I'll share the details soon in a blog post. I found this little piano at an estate sale. It was a boring, dusty brown color...which need some fixin'. So I prettied her up with some Annie Sloan paint, some Prima Re•Design Transfers, some gilding wax from Dixie Belle, and some IOD (Iron Orchid) Clay Moulds...and Voila!
