Meet Tarra

Pianist · Vocalist · Educator

This was me at my first piano recital in Seattle — age six, feet barely reaching the pedals, but already completely captivated. That early spark has guided every step of my life since.

Music became not only my language but my compass — the way I learned self-expression, discipline, and connection. Today, I have the privilege of helping my students experience that same joy and discovery through their own journey at the piano.

At Con Brio Piano Studio, I bring decades of training rooted in classical tradition, enriched by contemporary styles, into every lesson.

I believe that piano study is far more than mastering notes—it’s about cultivating artistry, creativity, confidence, and a lifelong connection to music. Whether you’re beginning your journey, returning after a hiatus, or ready to refine advanced skills, my goal is to create a space where you can explore, express, and grow.
