Turn down the hassle, turn up the harmony.

Parents, are you battling the chaos of an overflowing calendar? Do you want your kids to thrive, grow more confident, and reduce their stress levels? Does your busy schedule keep you from having enough time to connect with your kids?

Piano Power believes that every family deserves quality enrichment without sacrificing precious time together. As parents ourselves, we understand how hard it is to maintain that balance. We’ll help you reclaim quality time while giving your kids the joy of music.

Our Core Values

Happy teachers make happy students

We attract and retain great teachers by providing financial security, health benefits, and a fun, respectful workplace. As a result, our teachers give impactful, long-lasting mentorship—often all the way until high-school graduation!

Emotional intelligence

We hire instructors for emotional intelligence first, and outstanding musicianship second. Our student/teacher bonds are built on a foundation of trust and empathy, making them powerful and durable.

Humor and humility

Music education succeeds when it’s fun. We turn down the pressure, turn up the smiles, and never take ourselves too seriously.

A culture of mentorship

Our mentors equip their students with life skills like confidence and resilience, providing tools to manage stress and anxiety, using music as the vehicle.

Fun, customized, anti-competitive lessons

We never put your student into a “one-size-fits-all” curriculum. Each of our students is on a personal journey, custom-built for minimum stress and maximum fun.

The Piano Power Difference

Piano Power has been fostering a lifelong love of music for families in Chicago and the northern suburbs since 2007. Don’t just take our word for it—listen to Piano Power parents Dave and Becky Levine talk about the Piano Power difference in the video below.

  • Last month, we in the Piano Power community lost a best friend, a surrogate mother and big sister, and a mentor extraordinaire. Pam Worth was an invaluable mentor to Abraham, a lifelong best friend to our office manager Marla, and a warm and generous presence for Lara (me) and Stella, and the entire PP community. ☀️🌻
To read Abraham's full tribute to her, please go to:  pianopower.org/in-memory-of-pam/
  • "Learning this piece was so fun & very challenging. To me this piece evokes feelings of contemplation, ease, and the moon peeking through the clouds after a thunderstorm...I was super nervous to perform it in front of others, but feel really proud of myself for pushing through my anxiety!" We're proud of you too, Natalie! 💚🧡💪 Thank u for sharing your work!
  • From Bob's teacher Sam: "It’s amazing to watch how much Bob continues to grow as a musician. We’ve been working on jazz, and he knocked it out of the park with this challenging jazz standard “Nica’s Dream.” He plays with two jazz groups at school now and continues to impress me with his creativity and musical instincts!" 💚🧡 Love this!!!
