Dear Pianists

It was lovely to see so many of you yesterday at the Dulwich Festival Fair on Goose Green! Today I will be teaching Alexandra’s students so that I can hear how your pieces are coming along for the Informal Student Piano Recital on Sunday 22 May. There are still a few places available but do sign up this week and make sure you have emailed me details of your pieces by Friday so that I can put together the printed programme this weekend. Tickets can only be booked online and will be on sale until 5pm on Friday 13th May.

Payment is due on 23 May. Pippa will be invoicing issues next week for the final half-term of the academic year. Lesson times remain the same for September but do get in touch if you would like to request another day or time and I will see what I can do. The Payment Schedule and terms and conditions for lessons can be viewed below.
