Piano Lessons in Omaha

Sarah Cornell

Sarah Cornell is passionate about piano, her entire life is dedicated to its study.  Homeschooling allowed Sarah time to practice many hours a day. By age 14 her piano studies increased at Drake University with internationally renowned pianist Dr. Chiu-Ling Lin. 


Baccalaureate education brought Sarah to the University of Nebraska at Omaha with Dr. James Johnson. Piano with Dr. Johnson produced some of Sarah’s strongest and dexterous techniques as this artistry was passed down from Rachmaninoff. 


She is a self-taught ambidextrous writer who believes everyone can write with cognition and expression, using both hands. Her knowledge of virtuosic playing mixed with experience in how to prevent or work through an injury, and how to play with modified movement give her students tools that can go long in life. 


Sarah can teach any student of any age or skill level, don't miss out on an opportunity to learn from one of Omaha's best!
