Welcome to the Yamaha Keyboard Festival - FNQ!!

You’re invited to be involved in one of the largest keyboard festivals in Australia.

Yamaha Keyboard Festivals are a fun, non-competitive performance opportunity for all ages and skill levels. They provide a joyous, supportive atmosphere for students to gain confidence and share their musical gifts with their family and friends. Whether you've been playing for 25 years, or 5 months, we know you'll find the Keyboard Festival a valuable opportunity to work towards in your learning journey.

A central aspect of the Keyboard Festival is also the opportunity to utilise the capabilities of our Clavinova CVP series arranger digital pianos. Being able to play with a simulated backing band and a wide variety of instrument voices guarantees a fun and engaging practice regime and a captivating performance!

What can I perform?

You can choose to play any style of music as a solo or even in an ensemble with friends! Please keep the timing under 4 minutes per piece.

What is the festival like?

Keyboard festivals whether big or small are broken up into short performance of about an hour. In each slot, 20-30 students perform for the enjoyment of the crowd gathered with great support and encouragement offered by the audience, the host and the Yamaha staff represented there. At the end of each time slot the students are presented with their medals and certificates as well as some other Yamaha goodies and a short note with a congratulations on their performance and a few tips to continue improving. Between time slots there is often refreshments and a chance to mingle with the others in attendance.

I'm a teacher. What if I don’t know how a Clavinova works?

The Yamaha Keyboard Festival is a great way to inspire students and enhance your teaching program. We now offer a Clavinova Teacher Certification Course (CTC) to help you and your students prepare for their performance. Get in contact with Buzz Music or drop in to the store to have a demo and try out the Clavinova for yourself or with your student prior to the event! We will also be able to support students to set up the Piano on the night.
