Congratulations to New Mozart Graduate Alisha Bernatzki

Listen to Alisha’s original song “Lament” here.

Meet Alisha, a gifted singer/songwriter & pianist. We were mesmerized the first time we heard her sing at our recital and saw her continue to make strides in her music study with Teacher Robbie. She will be attending The New School in New York this fall. We are so proud of her.

What instrument did you study at New Mozart and for how long? I studied few instruments at New Mozart for 6 years and my main focus was piano.

Which high school did you attend? I graduated from Paly (Palo Alto Senior High School)

What are you doing next? I am going to The New School for economics and planning to dabble in jazz and fashion.

Tell us about your experience of learning music at New Mozart and how it has impacted your life. I would say I really appreciate coming to New Mozart and finding teachers I could really connect with. My piano teacher, Robbie, was an excellent teacher. He really helped me discover my sound and taught me everything I know about music theory. I played only classical piano for about 5 years before I met him and he introduced me to another side of music which opened my eyes to the understanding and listening of music to another level.
