Recitals
At Atlanta Piano Fortissimo, we believe performance is an essential part of musical growth. That’s why we offer multiple recital and showcase opportunities throughout the year for students of all ages and levels.
While recital participation is optional, we strongly encourage every student to take part. Performing in front of an audience builds confidence, provides a sense of accomplishment, and creates lasting memories.

- Winter Holiday Concert

NFMC FEDERATION FESTIVAL
What is the NFMC Festival?
The National Federation of Music Clubs Festival is a non-competitive event that allows students to perform for a judge, receive feedback, and earn points toward long-term achievement.
Who Can Participate?
Students of all levels, from Pre-Primary to Advanced, are welcome. Most students are eligible after at least 18 months of lessons, but we recommend speaking with your teacher to confirm readiness before signing up.
What’s Required?
Each student prepares two pieces:
- One selected from the NFMC Bulletin (required piece)
- One choice piece at the same level of difficulty
Your teacher will help determine the appropriate level and repertoire.
What Happens on Festival Day?
Students will:
- Perform both pieces for a judge in a 5–15 minute private appointment (duration depends on level)
- Receive an instant score (1 = Needs Improvement, 5 = Superior)
- Be given a comment sheet and feedback immediately after the audition
Receive a certificate with their final rating
