One of our exceptional MM students in Piano Performance, Qiaotong Liu, has achieved a remarkable accomplishment!🎹🎶

Yesterday, twelve of the finest pianists—selected from seven leading Texas university music programs—competed in the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA) Young Artist Piano Competition. As one of the strongest states for piano performance, Texas stands shoulder to shoulder with New York and California in its level of excellence.

I am thrilled to announce that Qiaotong Liu was awarded First Prize at the state level! She will now advance to the next stage, where she will submit a recorded performance to compete against the first-prize winners from five other states in the Southwest Division. Should she succeed there, Qiaotong will go on to represent TCU at the National Finals in Chicago this coming March.

Please join me in congratulating Qiaotong on this outstanding achievement and in celebrating her dedication, artistry, and musical excellence. Her success once again highlights TCU’s School of Music as a leader in piano education and performance in Texas and beyond!🐸🎹
