Memories from the Past
October 2025 Halloween Piano Party
|
|
We had a fun, spooky, entertaining, and very successful Halloween Piano Party on Friday, October 24, due to our student performers and the assistance of all our piano families. Many thanks to all who helped out! The decorations and the costumes were fantastic! Performers picked out prizes and everyone enjoyed our after-the-concert treats, which included our infamous "Witch's Brew!"
June 2025 Studio Piano Recitals
Our studio recitals on June 20 and 21 were the culmination of our students' efforts and advancement over the past year. We joyfully celebrated their achievements and immersed ourselves in their music. Students performed skillfully and artistically on an exquisite Petrov piano in the Mercer Music Hall at Northwest Pianos in Bellevue. The grand finale was a flute solo performed by one of our students, accompanied by his dad on the piano. At the conclusion of each performance students were presented with long-stemmed roses. Bravo to all our students and parents for their fine performances!
2025 EMTA Musicianship Festival

|
|
The EMTA Musicianship Festival was held on Saturday, May 3rd, at the Edgewood Baptist Church in Edmonds, with a theme of "The Music Garden."
Congratulations to all 13 participating students from our studio who performed solos, every one of them receiving blue ribbons (High Honors) for their performances! Our students also entered projects of their own creation and took five different musicianship skills tests: technique, rhythm, sightreading, listening, and music theory. In return they were awarded myriad colorful ribbons from the Edmonds Music Teachers Association. Two of our students were even given the coveted "Rainbow Ribbon" for their truly outstanding achievements. All participants will also receive certificates from the Washington State Music Teachers Association.
Students of Kathy Wolf Piano Studio can look forward to participating in this fun and educational ribbon festival again each spring!
The Musicianship Festival doubles as a fundraiser for student scholarships. Proceeds from registration fees go towards the "Excellence in Music" awards. High school students of EMTA teachers are eligible to compete for these monetary awards from EMTA in May.

Andrew & Aviel!
Our heartiest congratulations to 11-year-old twins Andrew and Aviel Wood, who have been accepted for study with Professor Dainius Vaičekonis, concert pianist and Director of Keyboard Studies at Seattle Pacific University.
Andrew and Aviel flourished under their tutelage at Kathy Wolf Piano Studio. They started out as beginners, and in less than two years they acquired the exceptional musical foundation that led to their being accepted for advanced studies with Professor Vaičekonis. How were they able to accomplish this progress in such a short time? Through their talent, their passion for music, their supportive family, the quality instruction they received, and their consistent dedication to many hours of practice!
We wish Andrew and Aviel the very best of success as they continue their advancement as pianists. It is our hope and dream that they will become an outstanding duo-piano team. We expect to hear great things of them, and we would like to enjoy their beautiful performances as they grow and mature into fine musicians. They each performed two Bach Two-Part Inventions at Crossroads in Bellevue on March 24th as part of "Bach in the Subways." May they be an inspiration to all our piano students!
