Piano Lessons in Toronto
Peter Kristian Mose
Peter Kristian Mose offers private piano lessons in the historic Cabbagetown district of downtown Toronto to all music learners, no matter their age, ability, or musical preferences.
Music educator Peter Mose is a welcoming Toronto piano teacher with sterling credentials and a wide reputation. He’s patient, cheerful, and knows his stuff. He also possesses an unusual expertise in the adult piano learner, and counts many adults among his students. One of his favorite accolades, however, comes from a 13-year-old, who remarked to his parents after his first lesson, “Now there’s a teacher!”
With over 25 years’ experience teaching a diverse range of students — including many seeking refuge from the the Royal Conservatory exam system — Peter is also well known in the broader North American piano teaching community. He has lectured widely, and was for several years an essayist and contributing editor for the American magazine Clavier, where his thoughtful columns found many fans.
