2. Referral System

We are incredibly proud of the quality lessons we offer, and the fact that most of our new students come from your referrals speaks volumes about the excellence of our programs. These referrals do more than just grow our school; they directly support our scholarship fund, helping us make music education accessible to more aspiring pianists.

You can help us bring the gift of music to more families! We have limited Sunday availabilities and a few weekday openings for your friends to join Manhattan Piano Academy.

As a token of our appreciation for your trust and support, for each student you refer who enrolls, we will:

• Boost the Scholarship Fund: Add $50 to our scholarship fund, directly supporting a wider community of aspiring musicians.
• Welcome Your Friend: Waive the $45 registration fee for your friend as a welcome gift to the Academy.
• Send You a Thank-You Gift: Give you a special thank-you gift for helping us grow.

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

4. 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!

5. Calendar Reminder

Please note that the school will be closed from November 24th to November 29th for Thanksgiving break. For those classes fall on these dates, your lessons balance out as there were 5 weeks in October/November hence you don’t need makeup classes.

Here is the school calendar for reference in case you need it for future reference.
