What we’re about
This group is intended to bring piano players of all skill levels and genres together in recurring recitals with each other as their audience. There are many adult learners and performers of piano in this city who do not regularly have an opportunity to share music with others. This meet up is intended to create a platform to give them that opportunity.
The event is intended to be a friendly, casual, and diverse affair. We have people playing Beethoven as well as music from Final Fantasy. We have people playing for the very first time as well as former competition winners. The common thread is a shared interest in music making and an interest in meeting other musicians.

See all- August Practice Session (Online only)Link visible for attendees
NOTE: This is a different event from our monthly recital, and will be an online event.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR AUGUST: The August practice session is a little earlier in the month to help Graham, a fellow TAP member, rehearse for his ARCT exam on Aug 19. He will play through his full program which will be about 45-50 mins. Therefore, in addition to Graham, we can have two, maybe three additional people perform a piece and receive feedback as usual.
ALSO NOTE: This month's practice session will start at 6 pm.
PURPOSE:
-To get feedback on and discuss our performances
-Work on tricky passages/sections with each other's help
-Get more practice performing, messing up and recovering in front of other peopleThis event will have a small group size to allow time for performance and discussion. Audience members, please attend to give your feedback as well!
