Welcome to Garrison Piano Studio!
The Garrison Piano Studio is a place where practice makes permanent. Students learn how to develop productive independent practicing habits so that they can be successful lifelong learners of the piano. We do one-on-one lessons where students work through repertoire by setting small goals. We do group lessons on theory to strengthen music literacy. We do peer performances to increase skills in performer and audience etiquette. Garrison piano students also participate in the chorus program in order to meet our state curriculum standards – some of which have to do with singing and performing in an ensemble.

Erica Gillette, Director
Mrs. Gillette has been playing the piano since she was 8 years old. She studied piano privately until high school graduation, adding percussion studies as a middle schooler. She remembers well how her music teachers were some of the very most important people in her life. Mrs. Gillette began her college career studying music education with a focus on percussion, then switched to performance early on and began studying the organ. Her degrees include a bachelor's in organ performance from Eastern Michigan University and a master's in organ performance and sacred music from the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Mrs. Gillette loves helping each student discover their strengths, develop awesome habits, and learn how to share the joy of music with others.
