The UWF Department of Music will present its 14th Annual All-Steinway
School Celebration on Saturday, Feb. 1 at 7:30 p.m. The concert will
be held in the Music Hall at the Center for Fine & Performing Arts,
Building 82, on the Pensacola campus. In 2007, by the generous gift of
Helen Wentworth, the UWF Department of Music became an “All-Steinway
School”. At that time, UWF was only the second university having
this distinction in the State of Florida. In honor of Helen and Warren
Wentworth, we initiated an Annual Steinway Piano Showcase and the
celebration has become a popular annual event in the community. For
this year’s celebration our talented pianists from the studios of
Dr. Hedi Salanki-Rubardt and Mr. Blake Riley will perform a program
including works by Brahms, Chopin, Dvorak, Mozart, Moszkowski and
Saint Saens. Since becoming an All-Steinway School many of our piano
students moved on to continue their studies at top graduate music
programs such as the Cleveland Institute of Music, Florida State
University, Belmont University, Louisiana State University, University
of Southern Mississippi, University of Tennessee, Michigan State
University, Montclair University and others. This event is free and
open to the public, but tickets are required. For more information or
