In recent years we've come from Russia, England, Venezuela, Croatia, Finland, Bulgaria, Brazil, China, Canada, Jordan, Greece, China, Poland, Japan, Jamaica, Taiwan, Ukraine, and South Korea.   We are a relatively small group of undergraduate and graduate piano students here currently we sit at a total of 37 pianists, with 18 of us being graduate students, and 19 of us being undergraduate students. Our small size allows us to be in close contact with our faculty and to receive individual attention and support.

Pianists at the School of Music have continuously done well during and after their piano studies at the University of South Florida.   While studying here, our students have been prizewinners in various competitions including Artists International, Seiler International in Crete, Konzerteum International in Greece, Missouri Southern, Citta di Marsala" in Italy, "Franz Schubert" in Germany, "Coast of Hope" in Bulgaria, Green Valley, the Florida State MTA Collegiate Artist Competition, the Florida MTNA Competition, the Central Florida Orchestra Concerto Competition.   We believe in preparing our students to successfully continue on with their piano studies after graduating from the University of South Florida our students have been accepted into masters programs at the New England Conservatory of Music, Cleveland Institute of Music, Boston University, University of Illinois, Manhattan School of Music, Georgia State University, Florida International University, etc.   Our graduate piano students have also been accepted to doctoral programs at the Cleveland Institute of Music, SUNY Stony Brook, University of South California Los Angeles, University of Arizona, Indiana University, University of Michigan, University of Marlyand, University of Miami, University of Colorado, etc.
