Presto is a well rounded 2 year piano-based music program that uses play to teach difficult musical concepts such as chord theory, sight reading, ear training, piano technique, music history, rhythm, transposing, composing and more. It is targeted toward beginners ages 7-12, though some students who haven't excelled at traditional piano lessons have found this program helpful as well. Each semester includes upbeat soundtracks and songs to play and sing.
