Piano Festival Celebrates Music & Youth

Get ready for the Southeastern Piano Festival, kicking off Sunday, June 7th, with a dazzling lineup that proves the piano’s endless versatility—from Bach to pop transcriptions. This year also marks the second run of the USC Piano Institute, a camp for 25 teen pianists diving into lessons, concerts, and improv workshops. While some compete in the Arthur Fraser Competition, others soak in the vibe, learning and connecting with peers and guest artists. Don’t miss Pedja Mužijević’s inventive “Homage to Mixtapes” program and lecture, plus Nick Susi’s debut solo recital as incoming Artistic Director on Monday, June 8th. It’s not just about winning—it’s about inspiring the next generation through music, education, and community. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
