Welcome Back!

Greetings SC Piano friends!

Happy New School year! It's been so great seeing some of your teams pop up on my Facebook feed!

I hope you all took plenty of time for rest and rejuvenation.


I took some time to be a mom and enjoy my now 1yo, Amelia. (Pictures all the way at the bottom).

We went to the pool a few times, we went to the beach a few times, some indoor and outdoor parks. It was truly lovely!


I hope you all are looking forward to another wonderful year of music making and supporting young pianists. We have a change coming to the Fall Festival Masterclass and Recital, so tune into the membership meeting to find out. Additionally, there are some wonderful projects that we are looking to pilot this year.


In this Issue:


  • *NEW* this year - Virtual Piano Festival
  • Membership Meeting Details
  • Free Piano Recital Tickets
  • Officers 2025-2027



Yours,
