Jack Scogna

Jack is truly a “Jack of All Trades”. His music career began with an undergraduate degree in Music Education from nearby West Chester University, (1972).  He was a high school band director for 9 years (in the PA public school system) while earning the degree of  Master of Music (composition) from Temple University, (1981). Private teaching, instrument repair, and piano tuning were summertime diversions during those years but, ultimately, these skills were to become a full-time replacement for public school teaching.  He later completed the extensive testing procedures to become a Registered Craftsman with the Piano Technicians Guild. From 1997-2004, Jack was head piano technician / tuner with Taylor’s Music Store-keyboard division in West Chester, PA and has done tuning, repairs, and rebuilding for 6 other area music stores as well. Since 1972,  piano work has occupied a very large part of Jack's life. In his ‘spare’ time, Jack enjoys bowling. Recently, his life-long dream of a perfect 300 game was missed by one pin, but he insists that a "299" tells a "more interesting story"!

Lois D. Scogna

She taught elementary music in the Pennsylvania and New Jersey public school systems for 6 years. For 14 years, Lois has taught private music lessons. She is currently accepting adult students only.
