Testimonials

"You are great!"

Lang Lang

"Both of my two kids are currently taking piano classes with Ms. Rossman. Ms. Rossman is an outstanding piano teacher. She has a very individual approach to each student and uses different techniques and exercises. Ms. Rossman inspires students to understand the intonation, articulation, tempo, and dynamics of the music. Many of her students have won prestigious competitions and festivals."

Zhengrong Wang

Associate professor, father of two students

“We cannot speak highly enough about Professor Rossman. She is a pianist and educator in the finest Russian tradition—a renowned pedagogue even before she arrived in the United States more than 30 years ago. Mrs. Rossman encourages her students not just to play well, but to play with passion. She brings out the best in each of her students. Mrs. Rossman guided our son’s growth as a musician, from age 11 onward, with performances on the great stages of the world, in competitions, charitable benefits, and summer festivals, challenging him to discover his own musical voice along the way."
