Harpsichord Lessons: Autumn Term

[huge_it_gallery id=”1″]

We are offering free harpsichord lessons each half term to students that are participating in the Junior Harpsichord Festival at Handel & Hendrix in March 2017. Now that you have all made a start on your repertoire, come along to our East Dulwich location to try out the harpsichord in a series of group lessons. There are two dates available: 21 & 22 October after-school. Let me know which session you will attend and see you then!

 

Autumn Informal Performance Opportunity at The Asylum in Peckham

[huge_it_gallery id=”2″]

Bravo to all of our young pianists that took part in a free performance opportunity provided by Casio CELVIANO Grand Hybrid pianos at the beautiful setting of The Asylum in Peckham. We encourage all students to perform, even if you have only had 1 or 2 lessons. Our team of teachers from our East Dulwich Piano School are on hand to accompany you on stage and make you feel confident and ready to perform to a friendly audience. As well as informal events for pianists, we run some formal events that have a competitive element. Many students prefer not to compete against each other which is absolutely fine, so we ensure that we have a good balance of informal events so that all pianists can participate several times throughout the year. Occasionally we are lucky enough to secure sponsorship to cover the cost of these performance opportunities so that they are entirely free. We are very grateful to Dulwich Music Festival sponsors Casio for their continued support of our events for young pianists in the London area.

Our regular student meetups provide you with the chance to socialise with fellow pianists, hear lots of new repertoire and also eat lots of cake! We hope you all enjoyed the day as much as we did. The next event is our annual student recital at the 1901 Arts Club in Waterloo. Ticket booking now open: https://billetto.co.uk/events/144146
