Andrew Payson – Founder

Andrew Payson is an educator and composer who founded Payson Method in 2018 with the goal of helping beginner piano students develop their creativity.

“Our books and tutorials will take you from absolute beginner through intermediate level piano. We are here to guide you in that process and make it as fun and as imaginative as possible, because creativity is the essence of music. You need creativity because you are applying your own ideas, your own emotions to the music. The lessons are simple but compressive. The music is satisfying but accessible. Payson Method is a framework for making music.”

“You can practice using Payson Method, and learn how to apply your ideas to anything, not just music.”
