Bio
Janita has been playing the piano for 35 years and teaching for ten years with the last six using the SImply Music method exclusively. She has found the method to be the most creative method she has found in teaching piano as the students are playing blues, jazz, classical, accompaniment and classical pieces from their very first lessons with an emphasis on composition and improvisation from the start. Janita has a contagious love for Simply Music, the piano and people. If you have a desire to play the piano, we can make it happen!
Classes Offered
Weekly lessons offered at The Tassel in Holdrege on Tuesday nights.
Testimonials
Laura Hicks, student, age 12
Before I took this program, I was taking traditional lessons and didn't fully understand the music. But since taking Simply Music lessons, I now know more about it than I could if I had continued with my other lessons. This is the best program to take if you'd like to be a better piano player!
Doug Russell, piano dad
Janita- Quotes from my kids last night: Ethan "I love piano lessons." Connor "I am gifted in music." It does my fatherly heart good to hear such enthusiasm, and I thought it would be an encouragement to you as well. I promise you those two comments never came out of my mouth during 7 years of lessons. A great testimony to your teaching and the method that they are learning.
Mary C. Wood, student, age 56
I had taken piano lessons briefly at the age of 7 yrs. Now almost 50 years later, I felt I was too busy and too old to take the time needed to learn piano. The piano at my house was a silent testimony. I could not play a thing, for piano music was a secret code to me. I started Simply Music in the fall of 2005. What a terrific system. I could play sweet little tunes immediately, and the encouragement of my instructor was beyond my expectations. The reality of the Simply Music program hit me and took my breath away when I played Ode to Joy for the first time. I will always remember that moment. (In humble comparison), that moment must have been similar to the time Helen Keller's teacher poured cool liquid over Helen's palm and she understood the symbol of water and communication began. Thank you Mr. Moore and Simply Music for cracking the code, and inspiring all to see the beauty of the musical world.
Tim Larsen, student, age 17
I love Simply Music lessons; they're laid back and the group lessons are great because they make me work harder and the people are encouraging to each other. Mrs. Pavelka makes things easy to understand; she knows how much material to give us at one time without overloading us.
Melissa Schroeder, piano mom
My daughter has learned a lot in a short time and she has confidence in her abilities. We love the variety of musical selections. Mrs. Pavelka is patient with the students and focuses on responsibility as part of the Simply Music lessons.
