The Fall Piano Recitals Program (formerly the Fall Incentive Program) is a series of short concerts where students of all levels and ages come together to celebrate piano playing. Participants gain stage experience by performing for supportive audiences in a welcoming and festive atmosphere. Players have the option of requesting comments on performance from a panel of adjudicators. 

All recitals are open to the public. Recital programming and scheduling takes various factors into consideration, including repertoire, level, age, and program balance. Program Chairs make every reasonable effort grant the applicant’s preferred performance date, and to schedule recitals to enable teacher attendance. It may not be possible to grant every request; the chairs reserve the right to make the final determination of the performance schedule.
