This class will explore composers of piano music, discussing main style traits, influences, performance practices, and repertoire. Participants will receive sheet music of excerpts for the composer(s) as well as some recommended listening. Participants will have the opportunity to play (on electronic keyboards) these excerpts in class as part of exploring the performance practices and possibilities associated with the composer.

In 2024, we will focus on the piano music of W.A. Mozart through arrangements of a variety of his compositions involving piano. These arrangements will be tailored to the participants and will include both solo and collaborative works with an opportunity to perform as an ensemble - Monster Piano Mozart! An exciting opportunity to explore Mozart's piano repertoire with fellow pianists.
