Welcome to the Research Guide for the study of piano performance! The resources collected here will help you conduct research on the history of keyboard instruments, build your performance technique, teach piano, and find scores and recordings to use for performance. Feel free to explore the tabs above to get specific research help.

I would love to meet with you individually to help explore these resources or to answer any questions. Please call me or email me if you need research assistance or if you would like to schedule an appointment (see the box to the right).
