American Record Guide - November/December 2019
Written by James Harrington

The International Keyboard Institute and Festival, now in its 21st year, has been the high point of my summer musical events for three years now.

IKIF offers people in the New York area two full weeks of outstanding concerts, masterclasses,and lectures at Hunter College. More than 100 piano students come from around the world to study and compete; their lessons and masterclasses are augmented by the opportunity to interact with and hear world class pianists perform every day. No event that I attended was less than superb; and, as in past years, there were several recitals that rank among the best I have ever attended.

There are summer music festivals all over the world. There are also summer workshops for students of all ages with opportunities for lessons and performances. IKIF remains unique in that it is both, plus an opportunity for the best to compete for cash prizes and beinginvited back next year to perform on one of the concert series.
