Michael Koenig

Michael Koenig is a classically trained musician who has studied the piano for over 15 years. During this time, he has performed in a wide range of solo and collaborative venues including solo competitions, chamber groups, events and banquets, as well as accompanying others. After predominantly pursuing musical studies through high school Michael redirected his attention to earning a Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Minnesota. Throughout the years, he has enjoyed instructing and tutoring students at all levels in math and physics, among other related subjects. Throughout this time, music has continued
to be a central passion of his.
Music is the universal language of the soul. It is a way to express the deepest of emotions and encapsulates the essence of the human experience. Music is a natural medium through which our thoughts and emotions flow, and helps us to process information or work through difficulties. The process of learning how to express oneself through music is a journey which can greatly elevate one’s self awareness and mindfulness in all areas of their life.
“If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my
daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.”
― Albert Einstein
Michael’s teaching philosophy is centered around the musical aspirations of the individual.
Music can be fun, rewarding, energizing, and deeply meaningful. Developing foundational skills
frees both the mind and body to realize one’s full potential for musical expression.
