While we live in a community that greatly appreciates all local talents (Thank you, Mid-Missouri!!), it is still wonderful to receive raving acknowledgements from out of town, as seen in a recent Fanfare magazine. Please take a moment to read this article. It is not every day that you come across someone who actively performs as much as Dr. Peter Miyamoto, while maintaining a successful studio as a university professor. You see, his former protege, pianist Hyunki Yoon - who is currently pursuing DMA at University of Missouri-Kansas City - ALSO won top prizes (plural) in the same competition in different categories. This is only one of many testaments to Peter's tremendous dedication of the highest quality, both as a teacher and as a musician. Here's the link to Fanfare Magazine Review: http://www.fanfaremag.com/content/view/59391/10269/ To find out more about Peter Miyamoto as a pianist, visit his web site at www.PeterMiyamoto.com.
