Performance Opportunities
These are optional but strongly encouraged!
Studio Recital will be in the spring - date TBD
Through the Topeka Music Teachers’ Association, students have the opportunities to
participate in various piano events at Washburn University - dates TBD
I am hoping to arrange some performances at nursing homes to bring the joy of music to
members of our community.
Piano Pizza Day will be scheduled shortly before our studio recital. This is a fun
opportunity for students to meet other students, perform in front of each other, enjoy pizza or other snacks together, and if time permits participate in music theory games/activities.
