Thank you VIPCF - Vietnam International Piano Competition & Festival for featuring one of our young Piano students! We enjoyed the whole experience of being in the 1st Edition of VIPCF, performing in 2 different stages, meeting new friends, and sharing our passion for music with everyone we met. We look forward to returning for your 2nd Edition, with a bigger group of young pianists, all eager to share their music with everyone!

Classically trained pianists can easily switch genres whenever they choose to do so. And their technical training allows them to play multi-layered melodic, rhythm, and bass lines, and take on the winds parts too! Such is the versatility of the select group of ètude CASA MUSICA students who took on the roles of KEYBOARDISTS in their band groups during our Concert 🎶
