Develop Your Skills.
Achieve Your Musical Goals.

Whether you’re preparing for auditions, refining advanced repertoire, or rediscovering music as an adult, I offer three focused ways to work together.


 

Audition & Competition Preparation

High-level coaching for musicians preparing for auditions, competitions, and top music programs.

"Shimrit.. touches on issues that are at the heart of every performing musician."

- Ron Regev, Head of piano department Jerusalem Academy of Music & Dance

Advanced Pianists

For young pianists ready to move from “playing well” to playing with authority. 

"Shimrit shed light and provided tools for so many issues that pianists like us deal with on a daily basis, both in practice and on stage."

- Eden, Undergraduate pianist

Amateur Adults

Personalized piano & voice lessons for amateur adults seeking growth, expression, and confidence.

“Working with Shimrit was a meaningful and transformative journey for me.... through her patient, focused guidance I gained strength, precision, and confidence in my singing.”

- Ahuva, amateur soprano

My artistic and teaching philosophy is rooted in creating music that heals, and guiding musicians toward clarity, confidence, and truthful expression.

I love helping people find their own truth through music. I’ve taught for more than 20 years, working with serious young musicians and dedicated adults. Guiding people discover and unleash their full expressive potential is what I love most about teaching.

My performance credits include concerts at Carnegie hall in NYC, Zimmerli museum in NJ, Mozarteum in Salzburg, Heichal Hatarbut and Studio Annette in TA. I have performed with Barrocade ensemble, Baroque orchestra and the Israeli Vocal Ensemble. I hold a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Piano Performance from Rutgers University in NJ.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Do you work with musicians at different levels?

Yes. I work with advanced students, pre-professional musicians, and dedicated adult learners. The work is always adapted to the individual’s level, goals, and stage of development.

Do I need to be preparing for auditions to study with you?

No. Some students are preparing for auditions or competitions, while others are focused on long-term artistic growth, confidence, or expressive depth. What matters most is commitment and curiosity.

What happens in a typical lesson?

Lessons combine technical work, repertoire exploration, performance preparation, and mental skills such as focus, presence, and stress management. Each session is shaped by your current needs and long-term goals.

How often do students usually take lessons?

Most students work with me weekly. In some cases, bi-weekly or intensive formats are possible, depending on goals and availability.

Is this a good fit if I’m very busy?

This work requires regular practice and reflection between lessons. If you can make space for focused, thoughtful practice, even in limited time, we can work productively together. ​​
