PIANO LAB

The Piano Lab of the First Lutheran Choir School serves to support the musical development of students enrolled in the chorister program. Beginning in 2nd grade, students of the Piano Lab will learn keyboard skills through a hands-on curriculum taught either in a classroom setting or in individual lessons. Keyboard skills are an essential tool for learning music theory, composition, sight singing, and for building a solid musical foundation on which to build other instrumental and vocal skills. 

Students who wish to participate in the FLC Piano Lab will also be enrolled in the FLC Choristers or St. Cecilia choirs. The choirs and Piano Lab are intended to support one another in the musical development of the vocalists. Students should expect to spend 20-30 minutes of practice time outside of classes and lessons for at least four days each week. Supervised practice time in the Piano Lab will be offered Monday through Thursday, 3:30-4:30 p.m. This commitment is essential to progression through the program.

For the fall of 2022-23, two classes of eight students each will be offered along with the option for individual lesson slots subsidized by the Piano Lab for a cost to the student of $10. Due to limited availability, spots in the Piano Lab will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

Piano Lab classes are on Tuesday and Thursdays, 4:30-5:15 p.m.

Individual Lessons are scheduled directly with Matt Tylutki, Director of Children’s and Youth Music.

Piano Lab open practice times are available Monday through Thursday, 3:30-4:30 p.m.
