Music Skills/Basic Piano
Morissa’s passion for music began at a young age, while learning piano and as a member of the St. Louis Children’s Choirs (a professional youth chorus in St. Louis!). She absolutely loves to ignite the same passion in younger students looking to learn the very basics of music reading skills and piano, as well as those simply “young at heart” who have decided it is never too late!
