ESTHER LEE -PIANIST

A Dedicated Music Instructor

Esther Lee is a dedicated piano teacher with a deep passion for nurturing musical talent in students of all ages.

In addition to a Bachelor's degree in Music specializing in piano performance, she has more than 20 years of piano teaching experience with children of all ages in Fairfax and Loudoun County. 

​

Esther firmly believes that mastering a musical instrument transcends mere technical proficiency. It's about unlocking the ability to convey emotions and tell the stories woven into each piece of music. Her mission is to equip every student with the essential skills and a profound understanding of music, enabling them to perform joyfully and captivate their audiences.


She believes in having a supportive atmosphere with honest feedback is something that encourages students to eventually learn to create musical expression independently. This will allow them to become lifelong musicians who can continue to learn and develop as performers. Her goal is to encourage students to love music as much as she does.


Beyond her role as an educator, Esther Lee is an accomplished professional accompanist, lending her talent to students participating in solo and ensemble festivals, school choirs, and church choirs.

"In addition to practicing law for many years, I have been directing church choirs for more than 35 years. At
the present time, I am directing two choirs at St. Stephen’s United Methodist Church in Burke, Virginia. During my time as a choir director, I have worked with many accompanists. None has been more talented than Esther Lee.
Esther can play any music set before her for the first time, and in addition to playing the score correctly, she listens
to the singers and recognizes where help is needed with their parts. She also exhibits the patience and good
nature required in a teacher, and will be excellent in instructing anyone having an interest in learning and
improving performance skills.
I am pleased to have the opportunity to recommend Esther Lee as an accomplished
pianist and instructor in music performance and theory."

"Ms.Lee made me fall in love with playing the piano. She showed me a side of the piano where I can express my feelings and play my heart out. I learned the piano from her for 2 years plus. She taught me how to fluently read notes, how to play classical pieces, and how to have fun. She always gave me thoughtful corrections and the best possible way to improve my playing. I dedicate all my piano skills to Ms.Lee because not only did she teach me
but she showed me how the piano can we do much more than just notes and keys.
She is an amazing teacher!!"

"Ms. Lee is an exceptional teacher who is extremely patient and understanding without compromising on the development of her students. She also gives the students the opportunity to pick their own songs and
emphasizes technique and theory whenever she teaches."

"Esther became our daughters’ piano teacher when their previous teacher could no longer teach them. She quickly figured out what needed to change to help our youngest daughter better grasp certain piano/music concepts.
In the four years she was their instructor, we saw both daughters’ skills and knowledge of piano improve immensely. Esther made the process of learning and performing enjoyable for our girls."

"Esther is an extremely talented musician and pianist with very effective teaching methods. Based on my daughter's experience and learning styles, she was able to adjust the lessons to the level of instruction that was necessary to meet their goals. She not only worked on technique, but also theory, musicality, effective practicing, and building repertoire. Thanks to Esther’s positive and encouraging teaching style, lessons were always enjoyable.
My daughters received lessons from her for over 6 years. We were blessed to have her come to our home. She was always prompt. I was deeply pleased to see that Esther sets the bar high. And, encouraged them to  rise to the challenge. Esther uses the lesson time very well. Her lessons include a wide diversity of skill development through
the usual collection of level appropriate performance and practice books. But, she augments her teaching by having the student also work on more challenging contemporary or classical music pieces of their choice, a jazzy piece,
some chords, some scales and some theory."

"I have had the immense privilege of collaborating with Mrs. Esther Lee for the past four years. She is an impeccable pianist and a phenomenal accompanist. Mrs. Lee is reliable and will always enhance my ensembles with her brilliant musicianship. We are extremely lucky to have had her play for South County Choirs these past years.
