Introduction: My business stands out because I have a lot of piano performance, recording, and accompanist experiences. I worked as an accompanist in Voice Department at Berklee College of Music, and Manhattan School of music Admission audition. and I had many different performances around the world.
I've been playing piano for 21 years. I played classical piano for 10 years and then switched to jazz, and contemporary styles. I graduated Berklee College of Music in 2018 with a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Performance and Jazz Composition with Full tuition. I then attended Manhattan School of music, where I received a high scholarship. I graduated in 2020 with a Master's Degree in Jazz Studies.
I have a lot of performance experiences with artists such as, Neal Smith Group in NYC, Rodney Jones Quintet in NYC, Various solo piano concerts, group performances, and participated in jazz bigband performances. I've also played at world renowned venues such as Smalls Jazz Club, Zinc Bar, Dizzy's Club, Scullers, Harlem Stage, Berklee Performance Center, Williamsburg Music Center, Piano's, CJ Azit, Rubik, and more.
Not only playing as a side person, I also have band leader experiences. Dabin Ryu Quintet had summer tour in 2019 in Seoul, South Korea.
During my time in school, I was able to study with Ralph Peterson, Joanne Brackeen, Francesca Tanksley, Kendrick Scott, Buster Williams, Neal Smith, Ted Rosenthal, Phil Markowitz, and many others.
I was a recipient of the 2016 Piano Department Award at Berklee College of Music, Herb Pomeroy Scholarship, CJ Cultural Foundation Scholarship, and Outstanding Piano Award at Jack Rudin Jazz Championship in 2020.
From my experiences, I can cover Beginner to Advanced Jazz Piano, Pop piano, Jazz Arranging, and Jazz Composition. I also can help prepare for music school auditions, or any audition prep.
All my lessons will be custom built for each student.

Dabin is an excellent teacher who is able to teach complex music theory concepts effortlessly.
Her methods of breaking down the music and conveying it to the student is a smooth process.
She is very encouraging and students feel comfortable and progress quickly.
My son, Mario, has improved tremendously in his approach to playing piano, and enjoys practicing and perfecting what he learned in the previous lesson.

My lesson with Dabin was an amazing experience. We worked on composition, and some piano technique.
Dabin has an incredible musical sense and can help any composer elevate their music. She is also a fantastic arranger, and brings those skills to the lesson. On top of Dabin’s musical ability, she is also a joy to be around, and brings very positive energy. I felt uplifted, and inspired to work to become a better musician. I highly recommend her.

I started working with Dabin recently. Her attention to detail and ability to hone in on my specific needs is greatly appreciated. 10/10 would recommend. Looking forward to continuing working together on my journey to learn the piano.

I was a bit nervous first taking this class because I don’t know anything about piano and get frustrated easily when I try to learn on my own. This class with Dabin was very smooth and easy she was very encouraging and guided me to quickly understand how to the correlation of fingers to piano to the music sheet worked. I feel like I understood more in this 1 hour than anything over ever looked up on YouTube. It’s absolutely necessary to have the in person help to truly understand how the set form works and Dabin was patient and fun. I didn’t feel stressed out at all I finally felt the enjoyment music is supposed to bring! Thank you thank you thank you!
