What will I learn?

Overview

Few schools can match the quality of CCM's Piano Department. An all-Steinway institution, CCM offers piano students access to more than 170 pianos (one of the world's largest collections of new Steinways) a prestigious faculty of artist-teachers and opportunities to learn from and perform with esteemed musicians in world-class facilities.

The performance-based curriculum includes weekly private lessons with faculty mentors, chamber music study and many opportunities to gain hands-on experience. Students become familiar with a range of repertoire by rehearsing and performing with multiple ensembles and presenting at least one solo recital.

In addition to unparalleled performance opportunities, BM Piano students complete an intensive study of classical music literature and music theory and work closely with their faculty mentors, gaining the aptitude and experience to perform professionally. Our faculty of eminent artist-teachers offer students one-on-one attention and opportunities to perform in the tri-state region and around the world.

Students graduating from our program will be prepared for careers in solo performance, chamber music, private teaching and solo performance. Graduates often continue on to advanced study. Our graduates have won awards in prestigious competitions including the Naumburg, the National Chopin and the William Kapell.
