Welcome to Piano Fest '08


Brian Ganz, Beverly Babcock and I welcome you to our annual summer retreat for pianists.

When our musical journeys and yours cross paths at Piano Fest, we all support and inspire each other in three days of learning, growing, exploring, striving, and imagining together.

Beverly Babcock says it well: “Piano Fest is always exciting for me. I love seeing the enthusiasm of pianists of all abilities and levels of performing. Each person brings a fresh, new perspective on a piece of music, giving me a chance to hear it in a different way no matter how many times I've played or taught the piece myself. We share the beauty of the gift of music with each other ~ performers and audience ~ and return to our homes refreshed and ready for the next challenge in life.”

We’re looking forward to meeting and working with this year’s wonderful group of participants!
