Manhattan Piano Academy’s October 2025 Newsletter

Dear Manhattan Piano Academy Community,

As the weather cools and the leaves begin to turn, we’re settling into the great rhythm of the new school year. October is a fantastic time to focus on our goals, embrace new challenges, and enjoy the cozy inspiration that comes with the season. We’re excited to share some important updates and events that will keep your musical momentum going strong this month!

1. Parents’ Meeting

We’re excited to announce our first Parents’ Community Meeting! This is a wonderful chance for the parents and the headteacher to connect, share your feedback, and brainstorm ideas to best support the students’ musical development.

When: Sunday, November 9th at 11:00 AM EST
Where: Virtually via Zoom using the following details;

Meeting ID: 863 0805 3538
Passcode: 329856

All comments and ideas are welcome. Join us and help us continue building a supportive and vibrant Manhattan Piano Academy community!

2. Referral System

We are proud of the quality lessons we offer, and that’s why most of our students come from referrals. These referrals not only affirm the excellence of our programs but also help us grow our scholarship fund, making music education accessible to more aspiring pianists.

Many thanks for your referrals!

To show our appreciation, for each student that is referred, we will:

  • Add $50 to our scholarship fund to make our quality lessons available to a wider community.
  • Waive the $45 registration fee for your friend as a welcome gift to our school.
  • Send you a thank-you gift.

We appreciate your referrals to your friends. Invite your friends and family for a free 20-minute consultation with Headteacher Katrin here.

3. In-Person Performance Day

This is our reminder to be a part of our in-person performance days. They will continue to happen once a month at the fabulous Piano Piano studio at 37 West 65th Street 4th Floor, New York.

Kindly plan to join us for our next in-person performance day on Friday November 7th 2025 from 5pm to 5.30pm. See you there!

4. Follow our Blog
