​
​Mission and Vision

The Sylvie Beaudoin Piano Studio’s mission
​is to provide piano lessons for all ages and levels
not only in its traditional form, but with a deep dedication to
​improving and nurturing each student’s own creativity, skills and musicianship.

While learning how to read and perform piano music remains
at the core of the lessons, the Studio’s vision goes beyond
by also offering unique experiences helping students
appreciate the different facets of music making
as well as the many benefits gained
​from exploring other art forms.

Making Music Matter Across Borders

Ms. Beaudoin’s signature concept and program, Music and Arts By and For Children was launched in 2004. Simply conceived as constantly evolving "abstract applied
arts and music theory," it continued on, producing elaborate multimedia
projects, more mature music reading and piano performance,
as well as over 100 original piano and chamber
compositions, some recognized with awards.​
New compositional skills and artistic mediums
​are introduced every year with themes usually linked to
current events, ​thoughts or causes. Taking a stand for the well-being of the
​environment ​has been a recurrent theme at the studio. The projects culminate with
art exhibits and premieres of the compositions. Since 2011, the program has reached other countries by creating special connections and collaborations.
