About the program:

Piano studies at Kilgore College offers students a variety of solo and collaborative performance opportunities with our Piano Duo Recitals, and Piano Plus Concerts, along with general student recitals and performance classes. 

Our experienced piano faculty strive to provide interested students with exceptional and creative instruction, allowing them to develop well-defined leadership and performance skills at KC that prepare them to continue their education at a four-year college or university.  In addition, the Music and Dance Department also hosts two annual community piano events: the J.S. Bach Festival and the David Karp Piano Festival.
