A unique course in four-hand and two-piano playing, under the artistic direction of Prof. Menachem Wiesenberg, with special emphasis on unique repertoire and ensemble playing in pairs. In addition to individual lessons for each pair with the select professional staff, the course also includes fascinating enrichment sessions.

All of them, incidentally, are graduates of the Music Center’s programs. The course takes place under boarding-school conditions, in the special and inspiring atmosphere of the Music Center.

The Outstanding Pianists Course is generously supported by Mrs. Dalia Karpelus-Feuchtwanger, in memory of her parents, Prof. Moshe Michael and Dina Feuchtwanger, may their memories be a blessing.
