Steinway Lunchtime Series

The Steinway Lunchtime Series promotes local Pittsburgh area pianists.  The recitals take place at 12 noon, on the second Thursday of each month.  Recitals are generally 35-45 minutes in length.  Recitals will now take place at the brand new Steinway Piano Gallery of Pittsburgh.  After a short hiatus due to relocation of the venue, the series will be reinstated on February 9, 2012.  More info...

Steinway Young Artist Program

The Steinway Society of Western Pennsylvania hosts auditions each spring for students of piano teachers who are SSWP members.  Accomplished pre-college piano students who can perform by memory several pieces from the standard piano repertoire are encouraged to participate.  Qualified students will have the opportunity to perform in various venues including recitals at the recital hall of our local Steinway dealership, recitals in the Heinz Hall lobby preceding Pittsburgh Symphony subscription concerts, and master classes with renowned pianists.  Students selected to perform on the Heinz Hall lobby recital series are also eligible to participate in a concerto competition, the winner of which performs with the McKeesport Symphony.  More info...
