the president.


Ensemble Recital:

Two pianos will be available.  In addition to piano ensembles such as duet, duo,trio and quartet, since many of our piano students sing or play other instruments they may perform with piano accompaniment.  To encourage inclusive performance experiences, non-piano students (such as teachers, parents and siblings) will also be allowed to participate.  Because we want to emphasize the piano’s role in ensembles, each group must include piano accompaniment and there must be at least one piano student per each performance.


Note:  For ensemble application please submit 1 application per composition(s) including all participating student's names.
