Music Lessons for Older Adults in the Main Line (In-Home & Studio)
““My 93-year old father, who is legally blind, started piano lessons about one year ago with the Meridee Winters School of Music. His tutor Elizabeth comes to his home and is a wonderful teacher – she taught him in a very short time how to play his favorite tunes on the piano. Elizabeth encouraged him to sing while he plays which not only tremendously improved his breathing but also his coordination. He is enjoying the lessons so much that his tutor now comes twice a week and it has become the highlight of his week. Learning the music and coordinating his hands to play the piano has been very therapeutic for him and we could see in a very short time many improvements we did not expect... My dad has traveled all over the world and learning the piano has given him such joy and sense of accomplishment at his age. I think it keeps him young!””
The MW School of Music is not just for kids! In fact, our school’s roots actually lie in teaching adults, which we’ve been doing since 1988. The Meridee Winters School of Music started out as a recording studio in Ardmore that specialized in working with pro and semi-pro bands and solo artists on songwriting, album production, midi recording and musicianship skills.

“I am 70 years old and decided that learning to play piano was on my bucket list…What I LOVE about this method is that while learning to play, I am playing real music - not just practicing scales.”
- Cynthia Downes
