Advanced Piano Performance Program
Kanata Music Academy offers advanced specialization programs in piano performance for professional-level students and emerging artists.
The courses are led by Dragoș Călin, pianist, musicologist, and university professor, whose extensive artistic and academic career spans Romania, Austria, and Canada.

The program is designed for:

university-level music students and graduates preparing for performance exams, competitions, recitals, and concerts;
advanced pianists enrolled in the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) programs, from Level 9 through the ARCT and Licentiate Diplomas;
young performers seeking to refine their technical mastery and interpretative artistry at the highest professional standard.

The instruction is personalized, emphasizing artistic development, advanced technical foundation, and in-depth stylistic understanding.
Training combines analytical and interpretive approaches, drawing on contemporary performance pedagogy and extensive international experience across major academic and musical institutions in Europe and North America.

Missed Lesson Policy

Students are responsible for paying for the time slot being held for them. That is, the number of lessons there are in each month, not the number of lessons they are present for.
Twenty-four hours notice is required to receive a make-up lesson. Last minute cancellations will not be accommodated. Make-up classes will be scheduled as soon as the teacher is available. Students may reschedule a maximum of four lessons throughout the entire school year. Once four lessons have been rescheduled for whatever reason, students will be charged for the time slot being held for them.
For lengthy vacations/absences (2 weeks or more), if make-up lessons are not feasible, credits may be given in lieu at the discretion of the Academy. A two weeks notice is required.
If the teacher is absent, the Academy will either assign a substitute teacher or arrange a make-up lesson.
No make-up classes/credits are given for absences from group programs.
All student credits must be used by the end of the school year (August 31). In case a teacher is unavailable for any reason to do make-up lessons for remaining credits, the Academy provides substitute teachers for students.
Any unused credits after the end of the school year (August 31) are forfeited and cannot be recovered. This is also stipulated in the contract signed by the student/parent/guardian with Kanata Music Academy.

Withdrawal Policy

Students must give at least two weeks advance notice and finish the month for withdrawal (or payment in lieu). Students are considered to be continuing lessons if no notice is provided. Students will be held accountable for the lesson fees incurred.
There will be no refunds for lump sum payments. The credits may be transferred to another student or used toward store merchandise.
