Petr's method for teaching piano playing differs radically from music lessons given by Vermont public schools teachers. It conforms to the traditional Russian piano method (used in Europe and China) that has produced the best pianists of the 20-th century (Emil Gilels, Sviatoslav Richter, Vladimir Horowitz, Ivan Moravec, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Wilhelm Kempff, Alicia de Larrocha, Arthur Rubinstein, Lang Lang, Yundi Li, Alexander Paley, etc.).
One of the clearest distinguishing features of Petr's piano teaching method is individual work with a specific student rather than a group lesson. It is this individual approach to the unique character of a given student that constitutes the very core of Petr's piano lesson methodology. In his opinion, using this method is the easiest way to introduce students to the highly intellectual art of classical piano music.
