I’m Sydney Kjerstad, formerly of Smart Game Piano.

Yes, formerly. You’re probably curious to know what’s going on - let me assure you: GOOD THINGS are happening. Yes, I will be continuing to educate piano students with personally arranged music from your favorite video game/anime/etc soundtracks!

I plan to share a gigantic update very soon, so please sign up to be notified first!

Arranger, Composer, Educator, & Pianist

(P. S. My last name is pronounced “CURSE-dad”.)

One of the most fun ways to either start playing piano or rekindle a pursuit is to play music you love.  Well, I LOVE Video Game & Anime Music  -  and they’re perfect mediums for piano education.  I’m a classically trained pianist of 27 years with a Masters Degree in Film & Multimedia Composition from NYU Steinhardt.  I’ve been teaching piano through Video Game and Anime Music for almost a decade now,  with 1-on-1 private lessons,  as well as online video tutorials, formerly with Smart Game Piano.  I’m very excited to build the best Online Video Game & Anime Music Piano School.
