Whether you enjoy listening to the vibrancy of live music or performing for your friends and other club members, the Piano Club of Sun City’s monthly music programs offer something for everyone. Club members do not need to play the piano.
The Piano Club meets at 9:30 am on the third Friday of the month all year long in the Sundial Auditorium, 103rd Avenue and Boswell Boulevard. The club President opens the program with announcements, followed by the Master of Ceremonies who will introduce those members or guests who signed up to perform. To be fair to others, each performance is limited to five minutes. We welcome all levels of pianists and all styles of music.
The Piano Club studio at Sundial is a spacious room with two grand pianos, a console piano, and classroom keyboards. It is the perfect place for club members to practice duets or practice on a grand piano for the first time. Reserve time in the studio through our club contact.
The studio hosts a series of music lectures called “In the Studio,” held occasionally. Only club members may attend as space is limited.
The Sundial studio also has a donated music library which is free for club members to take home. In addition, there are years of music magazines that can be checked out.
