Program director Peter Taussig working with piano teachers Connect with the computer generation   After a decade of research at the Royal Conservatory in Canada and Yamaha Corp. in the US, I launched PianoKids® in 2002 as a pilot project with eight of my private students. One year later we had 40 students. Today, hundreds of students have gone through the program in our four New England studios. Schools from Connecticut to Ohio are starting to incorporate our innovative PianoMath curriculum, that combines piano learning with developing math skills.  Parents tell me that their children would have never taken piano if it hadn't been for the unique PianoKids group experience. Teachers tell us that our kids do better in school. And the rapid spread of our concept is a testimony to the personal, musical, and cognitive benefits that children derive from PianoKids. Peter Taussig, Program Director *Our technology is so simple that 6-year-olds learn to operate it in a couple of hours
