ON TEACHING: I have over 20 years of piano teaching experience, from beginner to advanced, and teach all styles and genres. Join me as I guide you either live online or with my new online beginner course, PIANO JOURNEY with Jen Paccione. Either way, you will be learning songs from DAY 1…promise!
ON TUNING: What makes me a skilled and exemplary piano tuner is my extensive training from the Butler School of Piano Technology, 10+years of experience, AND possessing a seasoned musician's ear from my 30 years as a classically trained pianist/instructor.
Other tuners may say it isn't important that a technician is not a musician in order to tune. This is true to the point of achieving a decent "technical" tuning...but for a GREAT tuning, both technical precision and musicianship is vital. After all, the ultimate goal in tuning is to have a beautifully sounding, well balanced MUSICAL instrument. No two pianos are the same, so every tuning I do is customized to the particular instrument. I not only balance the instrument in a precise technical manner using tools and formulas, but I ultimately rely on my ear training and work diligently to achieve the most pleasing overall sound for YOUR piano.
I always test out the new tuning by playing classical pieces on it and then fine-tuning, if needed...so my customers can actually HEAR the results immediately!

If you are expecting someone who will sit down and go from one end of the book to the other like a drone, Jennifer is not for you. If you want someone who will take a good measure of your abilities and then go from there, she is perfect.
In addition to theory and the usual work, you will learn to play by ear, chords, and progressions. Each piece of music will be geared toward your musical preferences and to stretch your skill.
Our daughter looks forward to class, something she has never done with another piano teacher. There is no need to remind her to practice because she wants to do it.
We definitely recommend Jennifer.

Ms. Paccione quickly returned all my communications and was punctual for our appt. She displayed friendly professionalism, did her work in a timely manner, and readily answered my questions. I requested more work than she had initially scheduled for, yet she accepted.
I am pleased with her work and knowledge, I will employ her services again, and I highly recommend her for others’ piano repair needs.

Jennifer is honest, hardworking, and did such an amazing job on our old piano. Unfortunately, our piano doesn’t have much “life left”, and it will need way more work than what it’s worth. Jennifer offered to help us find another one within our budget, and test it out for us, to avoid bigger maintenance costs later. Grateful to have met her ❤️

Thank you Michelle for the compliments! I never want pianos to be people’s money pits, but instead wonderful instruments to be enjoyed, bottom line. Happy to help you in the journey of finding another one for your family.

Jennifer was a delight to work with! She was right on time and discussed with me thoroughly what needed to be done. She worked diligently on fixing the key that was stuck and brought my piano back to its beautiful tone with her fine tuning. I will certainly keep her as my piano tuner!
