About Us
Absolute Piano Lessons Studio is proud to have served the communities of DUMBO, Vinegar Hill, and Brooklyn Heights with premier piano and music theory education for over a decade. Our journey began in East Harlem, and more than ten years ago, we relocated to DUMBO—quickly becoming a destination for all things piano.
Following our recent merger with Beethoven Pianos—your trusted source for piano sales, rentals, tuning, moving, and more—we’ve responded to growing demand by transitioning our lessons program into an independent studio based right here in DUMBO. Today, we are honored to work with over 45 students of all ages and skill levels.
Our distinguished faculty is composed exclusively of graduates from the nation's top music institutions, including The Juilliard School, Manhattan School of Music, NYU, and the Cleveland Institute of Music. With deep expertise in piano pedagogy and music education, our instructors are not only dedicated teachers but also active performers, composers, and teaching artists. Each student receives a personalized curriculum tailored to their individual goals, learning style, and musical interests.
What’s the cherry on top?
Our lesson fees are the most affordable in the neighborhood—because we believe high-quality music education should be accessible to everyone.
Piano lessons offer incredible benefits at every age and stage. For children and teens, structured instruction not only builds musical skills but also boosts self-esteem and can even improve academic performance, including standardized test scores. For adults—whether returning to the piano or starting fresh—it’s a rewarding way to learn a new skill, reconnect with creativity, and deepen a lifelong appreciation for music.
