I'm an award-winning singer-songwriter and pianist whose music touches the depths of the soul, leaving a lasting impression. With over 15 years of experience teaching piano, songwriting, and vocal techniques, I founded the Margarita Shamrakova Music School to nurture the talents of aspiring musicians. From my upbringing in Ukraine to my vibrant life in New York City, my diverse cultural background shapes my unique approach to music education. Drawing from my success in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition and collaborations with industry giants, I offer comprehensive lessons covering everything from song creation to music theory. Whether teaching in the comfort of your home or group settings, I provide a supportive space where you can freely express yourself and discover your inner spirit. With a passion for unlocking the potential of each student, I'm dedicated to guiding you toward greatness in music. Recently I have performed in Lincoln Center in Ritual of Breath opera.
"Thank you!!!!!
Every student has a unique musical voice waiting to be discovered. With a background from the Juilliard School and guidance from some of the world’s leading pianists, this studio offers a nurturing yet challenging environment where technique and imagination grow hand in hand. Lessons focus on developing a natural, confident approach to the instrument—combining clarity of sound, freedom of movement, and expressive depth. Whether preparing for competitions, auditions, or simply playing for joy, students learn to think, listen, and communicate through music.
"“He helped me fix technical problems that I had struggled with for years, especially tension and unevenness. Instead of giving one solution, he tried different approaches until something worked for me. I feel like I understand my own hands and sound much better now.”
Music is more than notes; it's a language I've spoken for 16 years, from concert halls to classrooms. As a professional pianist, I tailor each lesson to your goals, fostering a deep understanding and joy for piano. As a teacher, I aim to teach discipline and skills transferable to all areas of life. Let's create your musical journey together!
Music has always been my language, and for the past 12 years, I've been fortunate to share its intricacies as a professional musician and most recently as a teacher. As a professional jazz pianist, I'm passionate about guiding students of all levels to discover the joy and artistry within themselves.
From concert halls to the practice room, my lifelong passion for piano is the heart of my 30 years of teaching. As a former professional pianist, I'm dedicated to nurturing musical talent and sharing the joy of music with students of all levels.
I offer lessons in singing, piano, and language tutoring (Italian, Russian, Czech, or Polish). I speak five languages fluently: Czech, Russian, Polish, Italian, and English. With over 16 years of professional piano experience and 11 years of violin training, I also provide support in music theory and can prepare you or your child for theory exams and conservatory auditions. My students have been accepted into top programs, including the Prague Conservatory and Vienna Music Conservatory. As a vocalist, I’ve performed on stages in the Czech Republic, Poland, and the United States. I tailor each lesson to the individual, aiming to build trust, connection, and a learning environment that suits your unique goals and personality.
