Warwick piano teacher and registered Steinway teacher Ann Lewkiewicz held a piano recital for her students at Steinway Piano Gallery in Paramus, N.J., on May 27.
Piano students from Warwick Valley and Tri-Valley Schools performed on a beautiful nine-foot Steinway concert grand piano. It was a lovely celebration of all they have achieved under such extraordinary circumstances over the past three years.
They played children's songs, dance music, popular and movie songs, rag time, as well as works by Bach, Beethoven, Eckstein, Chopin, Clementi, Ellmenreich and Rachmaninoff. Special recognition was given to Warwick Valley High School seniors Nathan Durgin and Lionel Wolfe.
After the recital, students were free to play on all the new pianos in the showroom. It was a memorable experience for everyone.
