Piano Pedagogy Workshop with Nancy O'Neill Breth

The Pedagogy Committee is delighted to announce that Nancy O'Neill Breth will serve as the featured clinician for this year's Pedagogy Workshop! Ms. Breth is the esteemed author of The Piano Student's Guide to Effective Practicing and The Parent's Guide to Effective Practicing. A nationally recognized pedagogue based in the Washington, D.C. area, she has earned acclaim for her expertise in piano education. Students from the Breth studio are frequent laureates in local, state, and national competitions, and several have been featured on National Public Radio’s From the Top.

Ms. Breth’s expertise extends far beyond the studio. She has presented at numerous Music Teachers National Association conferences and chaired the Technique track at Pedagogy Saturday in 2024.

Ms. Breth’s lectures will cover the following topics: “Go Home & Practice!”, “Technique Without Tears”, “Sight-Reading for Life”, and “Mapping & Memory.” She will also lead a masterclass, and we encourage you to begin preparing your students for this exceptional opportunity. Additional details regarding selection will be shared in the coming months.

Ms. Breth’s contributions as a teacher, adjudicator, and clinician are of considerable significance to the field. We are truly honored to welcome such a distinguished figure in piano pedagogy to our Workshop. Please mark your calendars—we look forward to a rewarding and inspiring couple of days with all of you!
