Piano needn't be lonely

It's fun playing the piano with friends!

The respected pianist Nadia Lasserson, only daughter of the unforgettable piano teacher and founder of the European Piano Teachers Association (ΕΡΤΑ), has, for the past thirty years, been watching her students grow in self confidence and musical maturity by playing chamber music in the company of their friends.

“It is a remarkable experience, encouraging the making of new friendships, stimulating rhythmic precision and the skills required for sight reading,” she characteristically affirms.

At the seminar taking place on Sunday 29 November 2009, from 9 a.m to 1 p.m, at the concert hall of Mousio Theasis, a newly founded cultural centre in Larnaca, Ms Lasserson will present an educational DVD, produced by her, containing 27 performances with many different instrumental combinations. They all include the piano and cover all learning levels, from beginner to advanced. Ms Lasserson has collected an enormous quantity of material regarding the specific repertoire which will gladly share with the teachers participating.

The session will end with some “hands – on” multipiano repertoire for various combinations of 6, 8, 12 and 16 hands on 2 pianos.

An out-of-the-ordinary seminar aiming to manifest how much more fun piano teaching can be.

Cost of participation to the seminar, 25 euro. For more information please call Mouseio Theasis tel. 99400752 and 99624752.
