Fall 2024 Four-Hand Workshop Series

Our next Four-Hand Piano Workshop series will take place from October 6-November 17 at our Laurel Heights studio! These workshops provide students with an opportunity to explore the collaborative experience of playing with a duo partner and to explore the artistry of four-hand piano repertoire! Duo partners can be requested by students (for example, a sibling, parent, or friend); otherwise they will be assigned based on similar age/level as appropriate. 

The Fall 2024 Four-Hand Piano workshop includes four (4) bi-weekly 45-minute sessions held on Sundays between 10am-3pm. Each pair of duo partners will have coachings by one of our excellent studio teachers and the option to perform at an upcoming studio performance.
