Margaret Miller Brown (April 22, 1903 – February 15, 1970) was a Canadian classical pianist and music educator.
Margaret Miller Brown was born on April 22, 1903, in Owen Sound, Southwestern Ontario, Canada.
[7] According to a biographer of John Arpin, whose parents engaged Brown for private lessons when he was 14 years old: "Her concept of teaching was to have her students play pieces from a very narrow curriculum, which she selected, using fingering exactly as written, but with 'feeling'".
[7] This approach did not satisfy the young Arpin's desire to explore and experiment with a variety of styles besides classical music.
Adjusted by grade level, the piano examinations covered a range of categories, including "general style, rhythm, quality and variety of tone, technical ability and accuracy", as well as auditory and visual tests.
