ENSEMBLES FOR PIANISTS AT PASADENA CITY COLLEGE -

Piano studies have had a long and rich tradition at Pasadena City College. One of the names that graces this recital hall is Adrienne Westerbeck, generous benefactor to the college and a former piano instructor at PCC. In addition to teaching the solo classical piano repertoire, PCC has always encouraged pianists to make music in ensembles. In 1981, Mary Hense started a piano ensemble class that offered piano duets and piano duos instruction, not only for piano performance majors, but also for those amateur pianists who had their first experience with the instrument in class piano (Music 41A) and continued through the sequence of four semesters of class piano. Laraine Stivers-Madden started a Piano Accompanying class some ten years later to teach pianists, singers and instrumentalists the art of collaboration with the rich repertoire of art songs and instrumental sonatas.
