Looking for Drum Lessons, Highland Park, IL?
“You’ve taken the intimidation factor totally out of the mix here.” -Jennifer, parent, Highland Park
Considering that Piano Power’s founder is a proud product of Highland Park Hospital, it’s no wonder that Piano Power considers Highland Park home. It’s the site of our long-running recitals!
Why is it great to be a music student in Highland Park?
Highland Park’s iconic Ravinia Festival keeps our students (and their families) inspired all summer long. One Piano Power student was accepted into Ravinia’s prestigious Steans Music Institute!
Highland Park students can also enjoy the concerts on downtown’s Port Clinton Square, and dance classes at the North Shore School of Dance.
Age recommendations
Our private lessons are appropriate for drummers aged 5 to 105. For students younger than five, we’re happy to discuss alternatives to private lessons. Somewhere around age 5, a combined increase in finger strength, reading ability, and concentration makes a student ready for private lessons.

Practice expectations
Your drum teacher will work with you to create a practice plan that works for your student’s schedule. The single most important element of piano practice is regularity. We know our students are busy! But devoting even a modest amount of time each day to drum practice produces much better results than relying on weekly “cram sessions.” Ideally, your student will make drums a regular part of his or her day.

Piano Power recitals
If your student has been receiving drum instruction with Piano Power for three months or more, he or she is invited to participate in our annual spring recital. Held in June and December, the recital is a wonderful, low-key way to celebrate your student’s achievements. Our pianists perform a huge variety of repertoire — from classical to original compositions to Top-40 radio hits.
