"Welcome! Conscious Listening™ is a skill set of making connections with music, with others, and with life. This residency provides multiple points of engagement to focus listening through the lens of piano music. After we sharpen our listening skills together, we can take them away and apply it to anything in life."

Testimonials
"I really, really appreciate hearing her thoughts about what the composer was doing in terms of the rhythm, melody, key, dynamics, tempo. It helps me personally to go much deeper. Breathing with the music has been transformative - I think about it all the time now." Loretta Cummings, Café member
"How naturally Hsing-ay's acute ear leads to unique insights into what the music is saying, with integrity and imagination..." Larry Graham, Queen Elisabeth Int'l Piano Competition Winner
"The sound and scale of the piano and performance, at that close of a proximity, was a phenomenal introduction to the piece." Adrian Delmont, adult pianist
