What is World Pianist Day?
This day is an opportunity for all pianists and everyone involved in piano music to celebrate it and make it special.
It’s a time to reflect on the past, enjoy the present, and dream about the future, continuing traditions and creating new stories.
For pianists & concert promoters
For keyboardists, pianists, and concert promoters, this is a day when they can host a concert, event, or master class to share their talent and passion for music with a larger audience.

! Don’t forget to congratulate
your teacher !
For everyone who is a part of the music community
Others will gather with friends from music school to reminisce about the good old days or simply enjoy the company of like-minded people.
However...
For hundreds of years, pianists did not have their own holiday
In a world where every important profession or hobby is celebrated with its own day, pianists and keyboardists remained overlooked. Their calendars, for centuries, stayed empty. This was not just an oversight, but a symbol of the underappreciation of an art form that requires years of dedication and hard work.
In 2014, driven by his deep love for piano music and the people in the industry, Ivan Manko-Vertogradov began to ask a simple yet profound question:
Why don’t these remarkable and talented individuals have a special day of their own, a holiday to celebrate them?
:(
AFTER ALL, Pianists
are worthy
people
These remarkable who play keyboard instruments have the power to magically fill us with emotions and create a whole mood.
They deserve a recognition just like any other professionals and enthusiasts, because their contribution to culture and education is invaluable!
