Lesson Supplies

• Adjustable Piano Bench - why get an adjustable bench? Everyone's physique is different! You may need to sit lower or higher depending on how tall your torso is, and an adjustable bench is the best friend of every amateur and professional pianist. This one is by no means the best (there's a lot of options out there!) but it's a good go-to for students who need something basic. Faux leather, storage inside the bench, and ample padding make it a nice starter bench.

• Seiko SQ50-V Quartz Metronome - while there are many metronome options that work, this one is small, simple, and requires only a battery. Volume control makes this one very convenient.
