Alex climbed onto the piano bench at age three and was delighted when she discovered that by pressing the keys she could mimic the sounds around her. She started piano lessons soon after and has been sharing her love of music by teaching piano lessons for over 20 years.<\/p>\n
During high school, Alex studied with Professor Lenora Brown, from whom she continued to progress and learn throughout her undergraduate studies at the University of Utah. She\u2019s had the opportunity to study from several other professional musicians in violin, viola, cello, flute, clarinet, oboe, trumpet, trombone, French horn, percussion, jazz, and voice in collaborations and master classes.<\/p>\n
Alex\u2019s breadth of learning and teaching opportunities allows her to draw from diverse music experiences and personalize lessons to her student\u2019s needs and abilities. Alex\u2019s training was also augmented by teaching at the Utah State University Music Conservatory where she taught private students and collegiate theory and music history classes. She oversaw the design and preparation for festivals and fundraisers as well as facilitating and performing in recitals and Monster Concerts. During her studies at the U, she participated in the children\u2019s musical outreach program for three years where she taught children who hadn\u2019t previously had access to music lessons in a group setting at Salt Lake elementary schools.<\/p>\n
In addition to her own solo performances, Alex collaborates with other musicians, enjoying the joys of improvisation and composition. When Alex is not playing the piano, she loves being outside, design, painting, and traveling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alexwalkerpiano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_9929.jpg” title_text=”IMG_9929″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_main_element=”align-items:center” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alexwalkerpiano.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_7812-scaled.jpg” title_text=”IMG_7812″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Sadie grew up in Eagle, Idaho and fell in love with the piano when she started taking lessons at four years old. She also took dance, gymnastics, and soccer, but ultimately settled on music. Sadie learned the violin at ten years old, and over the years participated in multiple honors orchestras, including the Utah Youth Philharmonic.<\/p>\n After moving to Utah in high school, she studied piano under Lenora Brown, a former professor at the University of Utah. Under Lenora, Sadie learned many classical pieces and participated in recitals, monster concerts, and state solo and ensemble competitions. She also began teaching piano and violin lessons and taught for two years before her mission in Tempe, Arizona.<\/p>\n Sadie now studies piano performance at Brigham Young University and loves sharing her gifts with other people. She loves teaching her students that music is a special way to tell stories and express emotions without having to use any words, and especially enjoys getting to see students progress and grow to love music as much as she does.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.20.2″ background_color=”gcid-caed07ab-202c-4073-ba2d-7680360c428d” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-caed07ab-202c-4073-ba2d-7680360c428d%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ALEX\u00a0 Alex climbed onto the piano bench at age three and was delighted when she discovered that by pressing the keys she could mimic the sounds around her.
