Vivace Musicianship Training Program | Vivace International School of Music


For our intermediate and advanced students, I also highly recommend continuing regular private instrument lessons while adding one weekly musicianship lesson with Vivace piano faculty members.


This weekly lesson can combine: Rehearsal & Collaborative Piano + Stage Performance + Ear Training & Music Theory


Rather than working with a pianist only shortly before a recital, regular collaborative training helps students develop stronger audition skills, stage performance, rhythm and listening skills, ensemble coordination, musical interpretation, and music theory knowledge. It can be especially valuable when preparing for competitions, exams, auditions, recordings, and recitals.


We hope these opportunities will help our students prepare successfully for the upcoming Vivace Student Recitals while building the broader musicianship skills that support their long-term musical development. We look forward to seeing everyone on the Vivace Stage!

Vivace 10th Anniversary Music Season: Your Ideas | Vivace International School of Music



Vivace 10th Anniversary Music Season (June 2027–May 2028)

As Vivace International School of Music approaches its 10th Anniversary, we are beginning to plan a special 10th Anniversary Music Season (June 2027–May 2028) to celebrate this important milestone together.


Over the years, Vivace has grown through the dedication, talent, and support of our students, families, and faculty. For this special anniversary, we would love to hear your ideas and suggestions and invite our entire Vivace community to be part of the celebration.


What would you like to see during our 10th Anniversary Music Season? Perhaps a special anniversary concert, faculty and alumni performances, student showcases, chamber music, masterclasses, guest artists, international competitions, summer camps, music festivals, community events—or something completely new? We welcome ideas of all sizes, from a single special activity to a year-long program. Students, parents, and faculty are all encouraged to share their thoughts and creative ideas. Please send your suggestions to us by September 25, 2026. We look forward to creating a memorable 10th Anniversary Music Season together and celebrating a decade of music, education, and the Vivace community.
