Manhattan Piano Academy’s September 2025 Newsletter

Dear Manhattan Piano Academy Community,

We hope you enjoyed your summer and we are excited for the new school year. Here is what you can look forward to as we kick it off!

1. Calendar Reminder

Please see our 2025-26 school calendar of events on our website soon.. Please mark your calendar for rehearsal dates and recitals.

We would love to see you take advantage of our free monthly performance days. Performance days are informal and were designed to prepare the students for formal performances and stage.

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. If they register in the month of August and use the code: BACKTOSCHOOL, their first lesson is on us. Invite your friends and family for a free 20-minute consultation with Headteacher Katrin. Email us today for details!

3. In-Person Performance Day

Our first in-performance day went really well and we would like to sincerely thank all who made it happen. The in-person informal performance days 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 October 3rd 2025 from 5pm to 5.30pm. See you there!

4. Duet Recital

Its time to get started with our duet piece in preparation for the duet recital. Kindly mark the dates and venue in your calendar and we are looking forward to seeing you, your friends and family then!

5. Follow our Blog

We update our blog with a new post every month, where we post useful insights, advice, and more.
