Classical Piano & Composition with Russian-trained music instructor
Anjelika Vassilieva
European Style – Innovative Approach
  • Unlock your child's highest potential
  • Give the gift of music to help them excel
  • The possibilities are endless!
Piano lessons are an excellent foundation for a child's creative and intellectual development.  I strongly believe that children need to be musically nurtured from an early age, as their whole world is filled with sound and music.  Each child will perceive music in his/her own way and with his/her own creativity as music abilities increase.  As an experienced teacher, I encourage music learning that is fun and exciting. Call me at 831-566-3961 to schedule a lesson.  For your convenience, lessons are given in your home.
