Every great musician starts somewhere, whether it’s B.B. King stumbling upon the color of sadness in art class or Mozart delivering newspapers to buy his first harpsichord. Take your first step toward an 88-keyed future with today’s Groupon: for $50, you get five half-hour piano lessons (a $100 value) at Mordent Music, located on Memorial Drive.

Instructor Stephanie Tellier is an accomplished musician with 10 years of teaching experience, certifications from the Royal Conservatory of Music, and the ability to play “Chopsticks” in the Hungarian minor scale. Inside Mordent Music’s cozy, centrally located Windsor facility, you’ll belly up to a real-deal baby grand piano, free of the digital frou-frou that causes so many automobiles to turn on their owners. Lessons are geared toward individual music goals and abilities: younger students will learn a curriculum that includes educational games, exercises, and creative theory learning, while mature students will delve into written studies and technical exercises in preparation for conservatory studies and back-alley minuet showdowns.
