Pianotreff 2019

NORDISK PIANOTREFF

Pianotreff is part of our Nordic collaboration since 1996. Norway, Finland, Sweden and Denmark will host annually our Nordic friends except every fourth year when the Europiano conference will take place. The convention is open for everyone around the world who takes interest in our profession.

The convention will be the 19th this year and it is located in Finland for the fourth time. You can find more information about NPTA here.

PIANOTREFF IN FINLAND

The Nordisk Pianotreff in Turku was succesfull. Thank you all new and old friends for showing up. A total of 81 people from 10 different countries eventually came to Turku making this convention possible. See you again at Nordisk Pianotreff Denmark 2020! While waiting, please enjoy some photos:

Free beer! Courtesy of F-Musiikki Oy ! Super big thanks to our server Joona. Maybe we can borrow him to next convention 😉

I think we are talking about the budget here

Our comfy hotel. You can actually rent a cabin for a year-round use very affordable. The guitarist of W.A.S.P lives like this in this very hotel. This accommodation did the job, didn’t sink, but we feel sorry for all the tall persons

Thank you for all the lecturers for keeping us focused

Allways take a picture if you see some Finns smiling

This picture is after cleaning the place in Saturday. We needed to drink the remains of the beer very quickly so there would be less load to carry
