TAMPERE PIANO SOCIETY (TAMPEREEN PIANOSEURA RY) IS AN ASSOCIATION FOUNDED IN 2015 IN THE PIRKANMAA REGION, SUPPORTING THE PERFORMANCE AND TEACHING OF PIANO MUSIC.
ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS THE ASSOCIATION’S PURPOSE AND HAS AN INTEREST IN PIANO MUSIC CAN BECOME A MEMBER.
Tampere Piano Society organizes the national Tampere Piano Competition. The competition was held for the first time in April–May 2017 and for the second time in September 2021. The next Tampere Piano Competition is scheduled for spring 2025.
The Pirkanmaa Piano Festival is held annually in November. The festival was organized for the first time in 2016. The festival program includes performances by young pianists from Pirkanmaa, as well as masterclasses for professional students and piano enthusiasts.
The Tampere Piano Camp for children and youth is held annually in June. In addition to individual lessons, the camp emphasizes learning together, which is often less common for pianists in everyday music school settings compared to players of orchestral instruments. The camp includes piano workshops, and the program has also featured group lessons in expression and rhythm skills.
