Greetings to my fellow musicians, music teachers, and music lovers!
I’m glad you’re here.
Who I Am
My name is Heidi, and I’m a piano and violin teacher and church musician in West Michigan.
I play the piano, violin, and cello, and I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Music from Thomas Edison State University in December 2019.
I love music, and I also love to write!
Why I’m Here
Have you ever felt alone on this musical journey?
Have you ever wished you had a community of fellow learners to walk by your side as you work on perfecting your technique, try to polish your piano teaching method, or improve your grasp of music theory?
I have, and that’s why I started Scales and Arpeggios.
I wanted to create a helpful, supportive, and down-to-earth community that will bring people together as they grow and learn from each other.
If you’re looking for a place to ask questions, get answers, and keep growing, then this blog is for you!
