Located near the Top Golf, the Studio is equipped with four pianos, allowing for two piano rehearsals and concerto accompaniments. The home recitals take place on a Steinway D Concert Grand piano in a room where the windows showcase a wooded backyard. For the curious student there is a homemade organ in the downstairs studio. Recordings can be made in the home with available professional audio equipment. Besides lessons, the studios are used as spaces to teach music theory, accompany instrumentalists, and hold master classes.
