With years of dedication to the art of music and specializing in Piano and Accordion; Quality lessons are Guaranteed! Playing music with my cousin Stefan, back in the old country where it all began. I was blessed to have warm, fun-loving relatives that were musicians who regularly played at the table for family and friends in Canada and in Europe. I was exposed to this since toddlerhood and was fascinated by the joy it gave me. I soon became determined to learn it for myself. Through different stages in my life, I connected with dedicated teachers who were persistent about helping me develop my passion and talent to express myself through music. I respected their willingness to coach me and followed through with endless hours of practice to learn more and get better. It gives me great satisfaction to pass my knowledge and experience on to others. Vida took music lessons at age seven on the piano accordion.
