FORTISSIMO AT 50
Forte@40 was a successful fundraising concert held last November 18, 2012. It celebrated PTGP’s 40th Founding Anniversary by featuring pianists ages 8 to 80 playing on 40 pianos at the CCP Main Theater.
Next year, PTGPFI will celebrate its 50th anniversary. We are proud to launch our anniversary concert: FORTISSIMO AT 50!
PTGPFI is pushing its limits as the concert will feature a whopping 50 pianos at its grand stage! New pieces will be arranged and debuted at this historic concert.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for pianists of all ages to learn about piano pedagogy and ensemble playing. It is also an opportunity to collaborate with fellow pianists and teachers. Our participants from the forte@40 concert surely enjoyed meeting new people. This is your chance to meet new friends!
We are now accepting applications for Fortissimo at 50! Kindly register on the links below:
We look forward to seeing and collaborating with you very soon!
