The Piano Immersion Program (PIP) is a unique and engaging piano program for curious, creative kids, which combines one-on-one piano lessons with group musicianship classes.

Taught by pianist Corbin Calloway Bolton, PIP students get all the benefits of private lessons customized to their learning style and interests while also getting the sense of camaraderie that comes with having fun and learning alongside their peers.

In monthly group classes, PIP students play music theory games, explore an overview of music history, write their own music, perform for each other, play duets, and more.

PIP students also get extra performance opportunities, including the Spooky Recital, where performers are invited to play in costume; the I <3 Music Recital, where students perform their favorite pop, rock, and movie music; and the annual Sonatina Festival, where students learn about the classical sonata form by playing a sonata or sonatina, themselves!

Students who show interest and commitment can also participate in optional competitions and exams such as the Royal Conservatory of Music examinations.

These are not your mother’s piano lessons. Sign your child up for PIP to give them a music education as unique and creative as they are!

Monthly tuition, listed below, includes everything listed under regular private lessons above, as well as the monthly small group classes.

The ATA Board of Directors has approved our budget for the coming year. Due to rising costs of doing business, we are re-introducing our annual registration fee, which we will collect upon enrolling your student in private lessons for 2024-25. This registration fee is required to participate in all Apple Tree Arts lessons, classes, shows, etc. and must be collected to enroll your student in the 2024-25 academic year.
