Dr. Bruce Hoag

Piano Teacher /Accompanist

Learning to play the piano is a reward in and of itself. Whether you’re seven or seventy-seven, playing the piano brings hours of fulfillment while sharpening the mind and senses. I teach you how to read music, piano technique, and theory, and help my students with the practical aspects of the art as well as how to develop a deeper understanding how music works. 

Other than the sheer enjoyment of playing music, piano playing has many benefits including stress and anxiety management, improved confidence, improved memory, improved ability to focus, and much more! Music has the power to bring us out of our daily grind, to lift us up, and being able to play it is a wonderful gift to ourselves and those around us. 

You’ve no doubt heard of the benefits for children learning to play piano, but what often goes unsaid is that all those benefits are available to adults as well! There’s no better time to start than now, and if you’ve already been playing, then I can help you continue to grow and improve.

And piano lessons aren't just for the young. If you're willing to practice a reasonable amount of time each week, then you can learn to play the piano in your retirement.

Piano Teacher

I had my first piano lesson when I was nine. As a teenager, I accompanied youth Sunday School and the high school choir.

While living in England, I earned a Grade 8 from the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and later an Associateship from the London College of Music.

I accompanied the middle and high school choirs at the Indiana Christian Academy in Anderson, Indiana, as well as voice students at Anderson University. Currently, I share the piano and organ responsibilities at Edgewood Baptist Church.
