Sing Us a Song Tonight

Piano Teacher Vino Mazzei

Your heavy vino habit has you afraid to weigh in.

Time for a hobby.

Step up to a new scale with Vino Mazzei, a classically trained concert pianist who teaches piano to the small and the tall in an arty space in Country Club Chicago.

Mazzei has been tickling the ivories since he was 6 and has a BA in piano and voice and a background in music history. During 30-minute lessons, he teaches classical technique and music theory in a laid-back manner. He substitutes group lessons for recitals for adult students, so humiliation occurs only in a private setting.

Don’t let his good looks, age, and fashion sensibility stop you from signing up.

You’ve always been a player.

Vino Mazzei (773-603-4282). Lessons at Country Club Chicago, 1100 North Damen Avenue, at Thomas Street (773-368-4045 or countryclubchicago.com).
