For eleven years, Bernies Music Land’s Piano Educators Day program in January has been an essential event on the calendar of piano teachers.

The 2020 program was the best yet, with keynote presentations by Andrew Raiskums (author of the AMEB’s Theory Series), piano technician Jonathan Wade, Robert Chamberlain of the Team of Pianists, acclaimed organist Chris Trikilis, author Mark Gibson, and a very special guest spot from Sonny Chua.

Teachers were treated to a print music exhibition, plus “what’s new” sessions from examination boards and print music suppliers, and “How To” snippets for professionals. Piano Educators Day is unique in our industry. We are proud to support piano teachers.

Feedback from previous years

Dear Bernie and all your wonderful staff

My sincere thanks for another wonderful Piano Educators Day. It is always good to meet with other teachers, hear what’s happening in the music world and become acquainted with the latest ideas in pedagogy. I realise that there are many months of preparation for such events and I thank you for all your work in gaining such wonderful keynote speakers and representatives of examining boards. The music world is certainly neither boring or stagnant! In spite of the oppressive heat of the day I am sure all attendees left with fresh ideas to enthuse them for the year ahead.

Sincerely,
Judith Lenthall

Dear Bernie,

Thanks for yesterday, it was a wonderful day. So many people I have known for many, many years. They all greeted me with 'a hug , pat on the back or hand shake'.

You have a wonderful 'Superstore'; I know Ross no.1 son likes walking through and looking at all the instruments. I benefited by him driving me to the store and returning for me later.
Everything ran so smoothly yesterday; I can only imagine the preparation work you, your daughter and staff must have done. ( I loved being greeted by Michelle and seeing your two grandsons.)
In particular I enjoyed talking to Mathews Tyson and hearing about his business and what he is next going to do re examining in Italy. Ross is working on my family history; my Great Grandfather was from Northern Italy and the family members were merchants. (The men were very musical and learned with the violin.) I inherited the red hair! Ross has also found (Coswello should be Cosovel.)

Keep up the good work.
Warm regards - June McLean

Dear Michelle,

Thank you so much for inviting me to yesterday's Piano Educators Day.

I enjoyed the quick presentations as well as the keynote presenters. All so interesting and very applicable to my teaching.
I left feeling inspired and felt it was a wonderful way to start the year!
I hope I can become more involved with the presentations/seminars and masterclasses at BML throughout the year!

Sincerest thanks again,
David McNicol
