About - Daffodil Music Studio

Narjes Soliman, Ph.D., owner of Daffodil Music Studio, has been teaching piano since 1987. Her extensive background in piano performance and pedagogy enables her students to become independent, confident, and well-rounded musicians.

As a classically-trained pianist with a BM in Piano Performance, Dr. Soliman provides the highest quality instruction in piano performance, technique, sight-reading, music theory, and composition. In addition, her advanced studies in jazz piano and experience performing in jazz bands enable her to share first-hand knowledge of piano improvisation, playing by ear, ensemble performance, and arranging for piano.

Dr. Soliman also continues to earn certifications in different aspects of piano pedagogy so that she can always provide the most up-to-date and highest quality instruction for her students. Certifications include all levels of the Musikgarten early childhood music program, the Robert Pace piano teaching method, and the Performance Wellness music therapy approach.

Dr. Soliman’s academic research explores musical composition as a means of self-expression, and her curriculum, titled Composing Music Inspired by Nature, has received outstanding reviews. She continues to explore the array of connections between music and nature, and she offers workshops and presentations to share her findings.
