Matthew Koumis Piano Studio

My focus

Welcome to my classical piano blog !

I am particularly interested in

+ A revival of piano performance in the style of the golden era of piano playing in the 1920s, 30s and 40s, inspired by such figures as Josef Hofmann, Guiomar Novaes, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Alexander Siloti, etc.

+ Cross-cultural inter-relationships between piano music, art and literature.
