About
Joy Music Studio
Becca Favero, the founder of Joy Music Studio, has been passionate about music since childhood. She pursued her love for music through high school by performing and teaching, then earned a Bachelor of Arts in Music with a focus on Piano Performance and Pedagogy.
Through the years, she has transitioned from taking, then teaching traditional piano lessons to how she teaches now at Joy Music Studio, emphasizing audiation and self-expression, an Edwin Gordon MLT-led method that prioritizes learning music the same way we first learn language.
It's the secret sauce to be able to ENJOY music and musicking: true understanding of it. So, when you're ready, join Joy Music Studio, and truly enJOY music!
