Getting started with Piano competitions
on: July 19, 2007, 04:41:33 PM
I woul dlike to get started doing something like that, but I have no idea where to start.  Even if I had to start at the very basic of the competition, I would still like to start doing something like that.

I live in Northeast Texas so If anyone has any information of helpful tips, I would greatly appreciate it!

I don't live in Texas but why don't you do an internet search and see what competitions there are available. And you have a teacher don't you? You really should ask your teacher...unless you don't have 1.
