“It was such an honor to be invited to perform at Franz Mohr’s Lecture “My Life with the Great Pianists” on November 8, 2012 at Alpharetta showroom. I played the Liszt-Paganini Etude no. 6 in A minor to open the lecture and it was an unforgettable experience. I feel so grateful to be part of the teaching team at The Music Academy at Steinway Piano Galleries.”
Alice Shiu and Mei-Fen Yen are teachers in DC market for Jordan Kitt’s Music (parent of Steinway Piano Galleries in Atlanta) who both had students selected to perform at the Kennedy Center with Steinway artists and world-famous concert pianist Lang Lang. 49 Roland HP503 digital pianos on stage with 98 students performing – Jordan Kitt’s delivered all pianos the morning of the concert and picked them up immediately following.
Our operations manager Scott Madden handled all the logistics perfectly, along with our delivery crew. Along with 2 teachers and Lang Lang on 2 (Steinway) concert grands, this made 101 pianists on 51 pianos. Event was sponsored by Jordan Kitt’s Music and Roland Corporation. The concert took place on Sat Nov 10 in the Kennedy Center concert hall and was completely sold out.
