Hello,
My name is Mary Hannon and I am the editor and publisher of Piano Forte News, a quarterly newsletter for pianists and music lovers.

How many times have you said to yourself...

"I wish I had time to play the piano"?

I said it for 20 years before realizing that I was cheating myself out of one of life's great joys, the joy of making music.

My journey back to the piano has been filled with the excitement of new beginnings, the pitfalls of unrealistic expectations and most importantly, the discovery that making music is itself the reward.

Maybe you're like me, returning to the piano after many years, or maybe you're just beginning after years of wishing you could play. Whatever the reason, your journey to the piano doesn't have to be traveled alone. There is much to be learned and shared with fellow travelers of similar interest and destination.

Piano Forte News offers a forum for pianists to share information, insights, ideas and experiences. Professionals, amateurs, teachers and students give voice to their love of the piano, its repertoire and the value it has in their lives.

Take a moment, click on a piano key and read a sample article and guest artist interview. Then sample some articles from our Archives and check out Events for upcoming performances and discussions. This will give you an idea about the kinds of articles in our publication.

If you are a pianist or music lover and Piano Forte News sounds interesting, you can obtain more information about our newsletter and our website by sending us an E-mail. We will get back to you right away.
