SUU and DSU team up for Southern Utah Piano Pedagogy Conference
By Ashley H Pollock
Southern Utah University and DSU are teaming up to hold the Southern Utah Piano Pedagogy Conference Feb. 22 at DSU. Workshops begin at 9 a.m. and will continue throughout the day until 6 p.m.
“These events are so important to the music teaching community since most of our interactions are with students and the opportunities to learn from our colleagues don’t happen often,” said Kevin Olson, composer and featured presenter.
This conference will highlight different issues that piano teachers are facing in the industry. These topics include effective practice and performance, remote teaching, fundamentals, improvisation, injuries, and prevention. Along with inspired workshops, this conference offers a recital featuring piano students from the area and other special performances.
“Great teachers are always growing and evolving,” said Mark Gubler, local piano teacher. “When we can successfully convey our excitement for teaching and learning in our lessons with our students, they will grow in their motivation and love for music.”
Registration is $25 and is free for high school and college students.
