Quatuor Piano & Lyons Quartètto Win Big in Germany Competition!

Congratulations!!! Our very own Quatuor Piano and Lyons Quartètto piano ensembles traveled to Marktoberdorf, Germany to compete in The 6th Annual International Piano Competition for 2 pianos, 6/8-hands, which was hosted by the Bavarian Music Academy from May 1st to May 3rd, 2008. Both groups finished first in their respective categories, earning monetary prizes and the opportunity to play at a prize-winner’s concert at Steingraeber Haus in Bayreuth, Germany. The six pianists who make up the two groups are all students of Jean Lyons School of Music. First united under the late Jean Lyons and currently coached by May Lim, these pianists have grown as musicians, learning about the dynamics of working as an ensemble.
