New York City Residency - March 9-14 2027
Alan Fraser brings Piano Somatics to New York City this winter with a 5-day residency mid-March.
This approach helps pianists regardless of their level. If you wish to learn, you are welcome no matter how well-prepared or unprepared your program may be. The residency is open to all interested pianists:
professionals who wish to hone their skills to the highest possible level.
teachers who seek new ways of teaching technique to their students
students who wish to improve their sound and agility
amateurs who want to feel more in command of the instrument
There is no limit to improvement!
