About us
AmateurPianists is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and the largest meetup group for pianists in the US. It was founded in 2011 by Glenn Kramer to provide performance opportunities for amateur pianists of all professions and backgrounds. Since its formation, membership has grown to include both pianists and non-pianists, people who love piano music or perhaps would be interested in attending their first ever piano performance. Our performances are FREE to the audience and are held at various venues—from recital halls and libraries, to churches and private homes. AmateurPianists also provides educational opportunities, such as masterclasses and lectures on performance practice, the history of classical music, and much more, including the San Diego International Piano Competition and Festival for Outstanding Amateurs.
We believe that piano music should be enjoyable and accessible to everyone, and AmateurPianists serves to facilitate this vision by connecting pianists with audiences.
Membership is free, so join us!
Board of Directors: Chair - Lulu Hsu, Yang Shen, Glenn Kramer, Songqing Wen, Connie Almond, Keith Weibrecht, Sonya Schumann

Kim & Kim Masterclass
Location not specified yetThe AmateurPianists is thrilled to host a special FREE piano masterclass featuring the talented pianists duo, Jeeyoon Kim and Anthony Kim. This dynamic couple will share their insights on technique, interpretation, and the art of collaboration at the piano. They help adult learners move from a frustrating intermediate plateau to learning how to practice correctly to feel secure in their playing and confidently share their love of music with others. This is a rare opportunity to learn from seasoned performers in an intimate, supportive setting.
If you are interested in attending as a student (limited 3 spots), please sign up here.
For audience, it is FREE to attend the masterclass, but due to limited seating, please RSVP at our website to secure your seat (only 30 tickets). We will not honor meetup RSVP for this event due to seating limitation.
*The detailed address and instructions on how to get into the building will be sent to you after registration at our website.
Let’s make music together!
