Kiser Piano Studio Student A Prize Winner at SEPF

Congratulations to Roger Luo for winning third place at the Southeastern Piano Festival. SEPF is one of the most prestigious young artist competitions in the southeast. See complete results here: https://southeasternpianofestival.com/competition/winners/. Roger (right, seated) also won the special prize for a performance of a piece written since 1990 with Carl Vine's Piano Sonata No. 1.

Lisa Kiser was invited to judge the competition, a prestigious cohort that included Soyeon Kate Lee, Steven Graff, Blair McMillen, and Soohyun Yun. FYI Lisa did not vote on her student! https://southeasternpianofestival.com/competition/#jury

Please see below a random selection of pictures from the competition. Lisa sometimes has her eyes closed. And below that see a picture of the Kiser Studio dog named Levy. Again congratulations to Roger!

Levy did not compete, but she would have won. See the deep stare of an artist:
