Building Lifelong Pianists
The Triad Music Academy Story
Triad Music Academy was founded in the Spring of 2022 by music educator Alek Wasserman with one goal in mind: to provide students in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with the skills and training to become lifelong piano learners. Offering piano lessons at our Main Studio in Winston-Salem, in students' homes in Winston-Salem and Raleigh, or at Instructor Shannon Lindegren's home studio in Lexington, Triad Music Academy is proud to serve students of all ages and ability levels. We have recently expanded our mission to offer voice lessons at our Main Studio, as well!
Lifelong music making is an idea that our founder Alek was raised with. His father Lew worked as a classical music radio DJ for WFMR-FM in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the 1980s. A highlight of Lew's experience was when he got to interview the famous violinist Shlomo Mintz on air. Mintz told Lew that there were two kinds of people in this world: people who can play an instrument, and people who wish their parents hadn't let them quit. Thus, Alek and his brother Ian (a professional cellist) grew up in a household where learning to play music was a lifelong commitment.
At Triad Music Academy, we believe in providing the framework, education, and commitment necessary to develop lifelong piano learners. You can learn more about our approach by clicking here.
