Thomas Rheingans Bio

The creator and author of the Stillpoint Piano Method is Thomas Rheingans - a composer, pianist, and teacher with over thirty years of professional training.  The Stillpoint Piano Method is the culmination of his spiritual and musical experiences over the past twenty-five years. In that time, Thomas discovered  new ways to practice the piano more efficiently and expressively.  He learned to quiet the mind so that he could experience his piano playing with multi-sensory awareness.

Thomas received full scholarships to complete his undergraduate and graduate degrees in Piano Performance at the University of Illinois.  Rheingans has taught classical, jazz, and music theory courses at several colleges across the country. Currently,  Rheingans owns and operates Rivergoose Records - an independent record label and production company that also provides music educational services.
