Piano NYSSMA 2013
March 8th & 9th at the College of St. Rose in Albany, NY
NYSSMA is a wonderful time of year where we celebrate music and practice being our best. Here is a look at what we’ve done so far in preparation for this year’s music festival:
Scale and Sight Reading Clinic: Wednesday, February 27th – 7:30pm
Solo Piano Master Class: Friday, March 1st – 7:00pm & Saturday, March 2nd – 4:00pm
We had a great turn out at all of the workshops, and we especially enjoyed all of the students' comments and feed back. We would like to encourage all students participating in this year's festival to keep up with their practicing and preparations. Every day, practice all scales and at least one sight-reading. Also, check for audition times in the mail. Best wishes for a fantastic festival!
