30th annual piano teachers association recital Sunday

The Joplin Area Piano Teachers Association is excited to announce their 30th annual Honors Recital, featuring 71 talented young pianists.

The event will take place on Sunday, April 30th 2023, at Forest Park Baptist Church on Rangeline in Joplin. This year’s Honors Recital will showcase the dedication of the pianists who have met the requirements to perform. Over the past year, these students have demonstrated exceptional talent and hard work.

The Honors Recital will feature six separate performances, each highlighting a different group of pianists. Two recitals will be held each at 1:30pm, 2:30pm, and 3:30pm.

The Joplin Area Piano Teachers Association has been organizing the Honors Recital for the past 30 years, and it has become a much-anticipated event in the community. The association is proud to have provided a platform for so many young pianists to showcase their talents over the years.

“We are thrilled to be celebrating our 30th annual Honors Recital,” said the association’s president, Megan Sabo. “This event has become a tradition in the Joplin area, and it’s always exciting to see so many talented young pianists take the stage. We are proud to support these students and their passion for playing the piano.”
