Liudmila Geyer, a distinguished piano educator based in Bellingham, has been honored with the prestigious Steinway & Sons Top Teacher Award for 2023. Liudmilla also teaches at the Encore Music Academy in Franklin and privately at the Steinert Piano Academy in Newton. 

The Steinway Top Teacher Award is a formal recognition by Steinway & Sons that commends a music educator’s passion, artistry, and dedication to students. This annual award is given to piano teachers for outstanding instruction and leadership in music education, and for demonstrating an unceasing commitment to their students, helping them fulfill their highest potential as musicians and pianists. To be eligible for the Steinway and Sons Top Teacher Award Program, music teachers must teach acoustic piano in an exemplary fashion.
