Through PRESTO, the Preparatory School of Music at Salisbury University, Richardson is teaching a new class: PRESTO Plus – Piano for Pleasure Group Lessons. Two open houses are scheduled in SU’s piano lab, Fulton Hall Room 243, for those interested in learning more: 6:30-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, October 3, and 10:30-11:30 a.m. Friday, October 6.

“Piano for Pleasure” is a beginner group class for adults who want to learn to play without the pressure they may feel in individual lessons. Classes are offered at SU in two one-hour sessions: 6:30 p.m. Tuesdays, October 10-November 14; or 10:30 a.m. Fridays, October 13–November 17.

The first two weeks of class are free, with no obligation to continue. Cost of the remaining four classes is $88. Class sizes are limited to 10 per session. No background in music is required. The lab includes keyboards and headsets, enabling students to hear only their own playing.
