Piano Lessons

Nicholas Turnbull is a passionate and dedicated piano and music theory teacher, with over 15 years of experience in piano, vocal music and arts. Originally from Townsville, he moved to Brisbane in 2010 to further his music study and has completed a Bachelor of Music (Voice) at The University of Queensland under the tutelage of Shaun Brown.

Being a young teacher allows Nicholas to engage with his students on an equal level, and they love his kind nature and the fun he includes in his lessons. Nick loves to see his students progress, whether they are learning for fun or to sit exams.

Prior to his study in Brisbane, Nick studied many other musical and art related courses including Piano, Violin and Speech and Drama. He has completed Grade 8 AMEB Piano for Leisure, Grade 8 AMEB Speech and Drama, Grade 5 AMEB Theory. He was a regular entry in the local eisteddfod and received the Townsville Vocal Bursary twice. Nick also currently teaches piano as part at Yeronga State School, where he teaches beginner to intermediate piano technique as well as musicianship and theory skills.

Rainforest Gardens Music Studio

Our music studio is located within the Rainforest Gardens at Mount Cotton. The lush manicured gardens include breathtaking scenery, and views sweeping the coastline. Not only does this make for an exciting adventure for students, but also gives parents a chance to relax and unwind by walking through the gardens whilst the lesson is happening.

The music studio is indoors, and has various types of keyboards and other instruments, as well as amps and microphones for those wanting to gauge a better understanding and knowledge of performance based techniques. For some people, being indoors often can become dull and boring, so we love to venture outside for a lesson every now and again, to stimulate and invigorate our minds.
