Lada Lagover
Piano
|
Lada has been teaching piano to students of all ages privately since 2005 and at
Allegro Music since 2007. Her mission as a teacher is to inspire students to reveal
their personality and imagination in the music they play.
Lada motivates a broad view of the many ways classical music can be performed and
enjoyed by encouraging her students to play teacher/student duets, participate in recitals
and prepare for Royal Conservatory Exams. She fosters the development of musicianship
skills through sight-reading, ear-training and technique exercises in a fun and creative
environment.
From the Royal Conservatory of Music, Lada has earned her ARCT Teacher's Diploma,
the highest academic standing awarded by the conservatory. She is also nearing
completion of a Bachelor of Music degree at York University, majoring in the
performance/teaching stream. Her wealth of professional playing experience includes
performing in music competitions, accompanying choirs, chamber ensembles and soloists.
Currently, Lada is performing as a piano accompanist for a Swedish choir in Toronto, and a
harpsichord accompanist for various chamber strings ensembles.

Carol Moss
Piano and Voice
|
Carol began teaching at Allegro Music in 2008. In each lesson, Carol considers the needs and wants of the
student. Whether a student wants to play a certain piece or if they want to play/sing in a
certain style, she works toward the goals of the student, while making sure that the
lesson is fun, rewarding and informative. She works on the proper foundations and
techniques for both piano and voice. This includes for the Piano: scales, theory,
ear-training, sight-reading, and for Voice: vocal exercises that work on improved
breathing, phonation, tone production, diction and expression.
Carol is currently finishing her degree in Honours Music Therapy, with a minor in
Psychology from the University of Windsor, where she majored in Voice (Soprano) for 4
years. She holds a Grade 8 level for Voice at the Royal Conservatory of Music. She has
also studied the piano since she was 9 years old and she is familiar with the Royal
Conservatory of Music requirements for students who wish to pursue their examinations in
either voice or piano.
Carol has performed in concerts with the University Singers and has performed as a soloist
in numerous recitals at school. She currently serves as a singer and piano player in her
church worship band and is doing her internship at Baycrest, where she works with older
adults as a music therapy intern. She has participated in and won countless music
competitions in both piano and voice, and she has received a scholarship from the Toronto
