What a fantastic masterclass today for AAPF members! Special thanks to Dr. Deborah Belcher ( Deborah Belcher )for serving as our clinician for a wonderful masterclass of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. We were so fortunate to benefit from her expertise, her warmth, and an incredible sense of humor and kindness. Deborah also provided some excellent pedagogical approaches for working with students of all ages and experience levels.

We will be sharing excerpted videos of the masterclass for AAPF members to watch, so look for the links in your member emails.

Again, thank you to Dr. Deborah Belcher as well as our masterclass participants and their proud teachers!
