Who We Are
Family Piano Academy (FPA) is the spot for piano lessons in Raleigh and the surrounding area. FPA has two beautiful locations: the main studio at 10320 Durant Road, Ste 101, Raleigh NC 27614 and a small satellite studio at 1637 Glenwood Avenue, Raleigh NC 27608. Established in 2007, FPA serves hundreds of Raleigh area families in its studios and in many great after school music programs as well.
The Best Raleigh Piano Teachers
Our highly-credentialed staff boasts an assortment of agile, professional educators with years of teaching experience. And we're a smiley bunch: we know that sharing music is an incredible way to earn a living, and we're grateful for it. We boast approximately 20 piano teachers - all with degrees and years of teaching experience. A great assortment of musical genres are represented in the backgrounds of our staff. Every student can find a good fit. The staff bios will help students get to know us, and the front desk will ask all the right questions to help a student get placed well.
Piano Curriculum
Our curriculum is unparalleled, too. Created by our founder, Gerry Diamond, the Diamond Piano Method teaches students to not only read and perform written music with great technique, but also to understand the fundamentals of music theory in a way that allows students to improvise, compose, and figure songs out "by ear". The Diamond Piano Method is supplemented by an incredible online component at DiamondPiano.com. This online resource includes thousands of videos, games, and self-checking tests that support every aspect of the method. It's like having an assistant teacher at home with you whenever you need one!
The Best Piano Classes in Raleigh
The structure of our offerings provides the flexibility that families need too. We are available for lessons all day, every day, 6 days a week. We are accommodating to home schoolers, after schoolers, and adults! Our main studio has 11 lesson rooms, allowing us to serve families with multiple musicians in the most convenient, time-saving way possible. In addition to our staple offering of private piano lessons, FPA also offers duet and group classes to serve students who prefer to learn in a group.
Our Focus
Education is our one and only focus at FPA. We're not here to sell you keyboards or sheet music. We're here to help you learn music - plain and simple.
Performance Opportunities
Music on the Lawn - Occurring during the summers, this event features free hot dogs, watermelon, and soft drinks with awesome music under the setting sun.
Retirement home and in-house recitals - These happen several times throughout the year.
Little Red Benefit Concert - This happens once annually. In 2017, our benefit supports the music program at the Governor Morehead School for the Blind.
Comfortable Waiting Room & Convenient Location
There is comfortable waiting area, a quiet "homework section", and easy access to the school off of Durant Road (see map below). And for parents who need to get to a grocery store while a lesson is happening, there are 3 nearby!
