An Announcement from the Studio of Esther Chung Marks

I am pleased to announce that my student Tiffany Ren was the 3rd place winner in her division of the inaugural Steinway Piano Competition in Melville held this past weekend! ?

I would also like to congratulate my students who were accepted into the Steinway finals:

Division 1:
Terrence Wang, age 8
Tiffany Ren, age 9

Division 2:
Shirley Xiong, age 10

Division 3:
Lolita Nazarov, age 17

These students’ video recording of 2 pieces for the preliminary round was adjudicated, and each was 1 of 12 students selected in their division to perform in the live audition. It was very competitive, as there were over 75 applicants from all of Long Island, and the playing was at a very high level.
