PIano masterclass
by dr. sara davis buechneR

Steinway Thailand is excited to present Dr. Sara Davis Buechner for an exclusive invitation-only masterclass with students of selected piano teachers. 

Sara Davis Buechner is a musician of “intelligence, integrity and all-encompassing technical prowess” (New York Times), with “sovereign command of the keyboard” (Los Angeles Times). Japan’s InTune magazine says: “When it comes to clarity, flawless tempo selection, phrasing and precise control of timbre, Buechner has no superior.”

She was the Gold Medalist of the 1984 Gina Bachauer International Piano Competition, and a Bronze Medalist in the 1986 Tschaikowsky International Piano Competition in Moscow.

With an active repertoire of more than 100 piano concertos ranging from A (Albeníz) to Z (Zimbalist) -- possibly the largest of any living concert pianist -- she has been soloist with many of the world’s prominent orchestras.

Sara Davis Buechner is the most prominent transgender musician appearing on the classical concert stage today. She received the Eleanor Roosevelt Award of Brandeis University, and is a member of the National Museum of Women in the Arts. She often presents talks and workshops to LGBTQIA+ groups, and has received praise for her solo autobiographical theater show “Of Pigs and Pianos,” which premiered at New York City’s TheaterLab in 2021 to rave reviews.

Currently, Dr. Buechner is a Professor of Music at Temple University, has taught and given master classes at prominent music institutions worldwide, and has edited important piano collections for Dover Publications. Her own compositions are published by Muse Press of Tokyo.
