The first Piano Workshop will be held this Friday, November 13th, from 10:00-12:00 at Graves.

Please see the link below for more information.  

Piano Workshop I

 David Breitman is the professor in charge of early music at Oberlin College.  He will bring one of his own Fortepianos down for all to hear and examine.  He will play on it, teach on it, and give an historical perspective on the differences with the modern piano, and also what modern players can learn from a familiarity with early instruments.  He is a marvelous musician and a first rate performer and teacher. 
This will be a very interesting Piano Workshop.  We’ll see you all on Friday!
