鈥淭hree Monster Piano Concerts in a row mean that we have a new tradition at 麻豆果冻传媒,鈥� Dr. Carol Britt, head of the Department of Music, said. 鈥淪teinway pianos are also a tradition 鈥� one of fine workmanship, resulting in fine music. This summer we received another grand for the piano studio and four uprights for other studios and practice rooms, so our own Steinway tradition is moving right along. Faculty, students and friends are all looking forward to entertaining you with an evening of piano delights that showcase the Department of Music 鈥� hard work and great fun.鈥�
