STL Piano Lessons at Shock City School of Music
Growth.
2021 is dedicated to growth at Shock City School of Music.
After a survival-focused 2020, we are excited for opportunities that allow us look towards a brighter year ahead. The music industry and musicians have been hit extremely hard this past year. I also have seen so many positive things music can bring to each of us individually and collectively as we have learned to navigate our new ways of living. While live music and performance may no longer exist in traditional ways, we have discovered countless ways to allow music to remain in our lives or even enter our lives for the first time! Many of you have explored music for the first time or had the time or motivation to dive in to a new part of music. I even resumed taking piano lessons and it has been amazing! Playing music can really inspire something within each of us and can serve to be therapeutic and comforting. Music evokes emotion and can ground us. It’s an incredible force.
While searching for ways to allow growth to begin at Shock City this year, I was blessed with the opportunity of acquiring STL Piano Lessons. Well respected and known musician and businessman, Chris Swan, and owner/CEO of STL Piano Lessons, decided to relocate to New York City. Chris’s absence in St. Louis will be taken hard both in the music and education community. He has done a phenomenal job building the STL Piano Lessons brand and serving the piano education needs of St. Louis! I am completely honored to be given the opportunity to take over this incredible school.
I am excited to focus on the absorption of STL Piano Lessons into Shock City School of Music over the course of this upcoming year. This is exactly the opportunity we need this year and I am so blessed to begin to watch Shock City School of Music and STL Piano Lessons blossom.
Our promise to you, as always, is excellent music education. I have acquired 6 new multi-instrumental music educators who will help to round out Shock City.
What this means for current and future students:
the BEST in music instruction.
additional lesson opportunities.
our music community just got bigger!
a one-stop shop for all of your lesson needs.
We are committed to growth and providing a premier lesson experience. Our students are our top priority. Sharing music and creating music begins with you. Thank you for entrusting us with your music journey. I am excited and honored to watch 2021 unfold with Shock City’s growth and yours.
Warmly. Musically Yours,
Gen Lobonc Billhartz
owner + director of Shock City School of Music and STL Piano Lessons
