Overview

The Piano programme from Roosevelt University comprised of distinguished pedagogues and some of today's most preeminent concert artists, offers the highest quality of teaching.

Guest artist master classes, workshops, performance festivals and school-sponsored competitions provide extra opportunities for our students to immerse themselves in.

Key facts

The strong and varied body of international piano students is further served by our unique English language programme, which allows non-native English speakers to study English and piano intensively, to prepare them for entrance into the full BM or MM curriculum.

Students learn how music works in conjunction with art and literature, become acquainted with historical performance practice, develop a hunger to discover excellent contemporary music and, most importantly, develop their own individual artistry and musical vision.
