About Me
My name is Karl Tricomi and I have been teaching piano for over 40 years. As a graduate of the Juilliard School I have performed in concert venues across the United States as well as in Europe. I am on the faculty of the New Jersey School of Music where I teach a wide variety of students in addition to those in my private practice.
My curriculum is broad-based incorporating all styles of music and diverse methods, and I have taught a wide variety of students from beginners through advanced. I have excellent rapport with my students and make lessons an enjoyable experience for them and their parents. It will be my pleasure to provide productive and pleasurable lessons for your child and am confident that he or she will learn piano to their satisfaction and yours.
Yours Truly,
Karl Tricomi

My Musical Influences
I draw a great deal of inspiration from teachers who make music enjoyable to learn. My own teacher, Katherine Bacon, at the Juilliard School, made music a rewarding experience with her emphasis on the ear as the best judge for a good performance, and her general enthusiasm about music.
My own approach to teaching is relaxed and positive and I instill a love of music and creative sensitivity in all students, regardless of age and level of advancement. I allow students to learn at their own pace and I take their musiclal tastes into consideration.
In addition to classical, I often perform jazz, cocktail piano, and Broadway show tunes, and my varied background and experience is highly benefical to all students.

Fondest memories of learning …. Now, 50 years later, I’ve been gifted with a piano and it’s all coming back.
