Steinway & Sons Top Piano Teacher

Happy International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and brilliance of women and girls everywhere.

I’m Lydia Velichkovski, Founder & Director of Tribeca Music, a proudly female-owned and female-run music school. This past year brought incredible milestones—opening our first physical location in Tribeca after over a decade of in-home lessons and being honored as a Steinway & Sons Top Piano Teacher, a true dream come true.

Transitioning from pianist to business owner has been both challenging and rewarding, teaching me to be brave, trust myself, and embrace growth. As a woman, my nurturing instincts shape how I run our school—with warmth, care, and attention to detail—creating a supportive, high-standard environment where students thrive. From special recital events with thoughtful touches to hiring dedicated instructors, every aspect of Tribeca Music is designed to inspire and uplift.

Here’s to the power of women in music, business, and beyond—lifting each other up and leading with passion and purpose. ✨🎶💐
