Claire at piano

Claire and Alison are friends who met at a piano course. We wanted to have the opportunity to attend more courses, so in 2017 we decided to run our own, with all our favourite ideas from the other courses that we have enjoyed. Pianissimi was such a success that it now runs twice a year. The thing that differentiates this course from many others is the significant contact time that students have with tutors in both masterclasses and lessons, and the daily performance opportunities.

If you, like us, are a piano nut, do come and join us at Pianissimi. We look forward to meeting you.

​

Best wishes,

Claire Vane and Alison Bestow
