PRIVATE STUDIO: Moore Music Studio operates from September through July, and is closed the
month of August. All students have one one-hour private lesson per week, and one of the three
group lessons each month (one specifically designed for beginners, one specifically designed for
intermediate and advance, and one specifically designed for adults). In group lesson we perform
our repertoire, learn performance etiquette, and also study music history and music theory. There
are two recitals each year: a Holiday Recital in December, and a Spring Recital in May where the
students are also presented with the ribbons, pins, certificates, medals, and trophies they have
earned during the year. Following each recital is a reception. After the Spring Recital, we
immediately begin working on our goals for the coming year.
Some of my piano students are intending to make music a career, and some are not. I also teach
college-prep for music majors, music composition, and gifted and talented music students with
learning disabilities. I have had students win and place in various local, regional, national, and
international competitions, and receive full music-scholarships from colleges and universities.
Depending on each student's level and career-path, my students participate in, and have won or
placed in one or more of the following: ETMTA Fall Festival, ETMTA Achievement Auditions, TMTA
Theory Examination, TMTA World of Music Examination, TMTA Chamber Music Competition, TMTA
Chamber Music Clinic, TMTA Publication Competition, TMTA Composition Competition, MTNA
Composition Competition, TMTA Ensembles, TMTA Convention Projects, TMTA Keyboard
Orchestra, National Guild of Piano Teachers Auditions, UTT Piano Skills Festival, Stephen F. Austin
University's East Texas Piano Competition, Kilgore College Concerto Competition, Kilgore College
Bach Festival, Robert Avalon Competition for Composers, Lynn Harrell Concerto Competition in
Dallas, Houston Concerto Competition, Manchester International Concerto Competition in England,
and many other regional, national, and international competitions.
