Make it

we assist our students in preparing for and passing both the ABRSM and NMTA Music Level Tests in piano performance and music theory, ensuring they achieve their full potential.

two of our outstanding piano students received official letters from the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) for achieving distinction scores.

  • Performance Grades are digital exams assessed from a video recording. They focus on performance skills and are available at Grades 1 to 8 for a wide range of instrumental and singing subjects, plus Initial Grade for Piano and Bowed Strings.

  • Non-competitive, pre-college festivals are held every spring at five district sites in piano, orchestral strings, voice, woodwinds, brass, percussion, plectrum guitar, and classical guitar. These festivals are held in April or May at sites in the Lincoln, Omaha, Central, Western, and Northeastern Districts. Students entering as soloists are required to perform at least two memorized pieces, scales or other technical requirements, sight reading, and a written and aural test in theory and musicianship.

  • Preparing for the ABRSM Piano Examination requires dedication and strategic preparation. By implementing these proven tips—practicing diligently, listening to recordings, using a metronome, adding musicality to scales and arpeggios, maintaining good posture, mastering sight-reading, and building a strong foundation in aural skills—your child can maximize their chances of excelling in the exam. Remember, each step taken in preparation contributes not only to their performance but also to their overall musical growth and enjoyment. Embrace the journey, support their progress, and celebrate their achievements along the way.
