Mister Bass Clef Music
Introduction: For children (ages 7 and up) and adults.
Over 30 years of experience with all ages and levels. Learn note reading, improvising (playing by chord) or both.
Private or semi-private (group of 2) lessons available.
Privates lessons are 30 minutes, 45 minutes or 1 hour.
Semi-privates are 1 hour. In the semi-private lessons, each of the 2 students is under a headphone, at his/her own piano, learning individually at their own pace. This type of lesson allows more warmup time on each song and more time to try anything new. I go back and forth between the 2 students and listen to them under my set of headphones.
Lessons can be taken weekly, every other week or randomly.
Every other week gives the student more time to practice before each lesson with less cost and less driving time.

Joyce is an outstanding piano teacher. I became her student in 2006 and was until 2012 when she discontinued teaching in the Twin Cities area.
Joyce is always patient and is interested in her student's progress. She is focused when she is with her students and obviously takes great pride and joy in her work. This is evident by all the photographs of her students that she has hanging in her studio and she always seemed as if she was very pleased to be in her studio with her students. Also, her studio was so full of students that many times it was it was hard to get through the door. I highly recommend Joyce Lundeen and I wish she was still teaching in the Twin Cities area.

I have been taking piano lessons from Joyce for ten years here in Minnesota, having almost completed Level 3A. She is experienced, knowledgeable, thorough, and patient, and works well both with children and adults (I happen to be 60 years old). Students don't have to play songs perfectly start to finish (although I try to) but Joyce does ask us to go back and play perfectly the imperfect part of the song; a little less pressure that way. She is flexible about lessons, i.e., I go off and practice four to six songs and other drills for several months, and then have a lesson with her. Having a lesson every two to three months has worked well for me and fits my learning style. If you're looking for a first-rate piano teacher, look no further than Joyce Lundeen.

My three children had taken piano lessons for several years with a number a different teachers before we found Joyce. Her teaching method is direct, focused and very positive and upbeat. She is high energy and really knows how to keep kids motivated and on task. She is also fantastic with older students and we saw several adults in her studio over the years. My 16 year old was so disappointed with the thought of losing Joyce as her teacher. In her program, the kids were really learning how to read music well in addition to learning to play the music. Never felt like they were just being passed along to the next song until they really had it down. Highly recommended!

My son started piano lessons with Joyce in 2009 when he was just 6 years old. Her unique method of teaching made it possible for him to not only stick with it but to enjoy it as well. Having other students in the room using headsets is an ideal setting for people, particularly children, who don't want the high pressure of one-on-one constant monitoring. We also appreciated the every other week lessons for our busy schedules (we all get busy nowadays).
Because Joyce cares so much, she was kind enough to line up a replacement teacher, using the same format she uses, to take all her students before moving to Florida. Although my son likes the new teacher too, he has since said how much he misses her. How many 9 year old boys would say, out of the blue, how much he misses his piano teacher? But that's Joyce. We love and miss her and wish her the best!!
