Study with Chris Foley



I am now interviewing students for my Oakville piano studio, as long as you don't mind waiting until the 2023-24 academic year. Please register online here and I would be glad to contact you. My home studio is located in the River Oaks neighborhood of Oakville, Ontario.
Check out Foley Music and Arts, my latest blogging project. Need help with practicing? I've written two free ebooks which are available as free downloads.
