Trained in South Korea, Teaches in the Upstate, Performs Across the Region

She made her orchestral debut at ten years old in Daegu, South Korea, performing Chopin’s First Piano Concerto. She attended Yonsei University. Her students have consistently won state and national competitions. They have been admitted to conservatories and colleges such as Princeton University.

RESOURCES

Lisa Won Kiser teaches piano lessons, along with her husband, out of their home in Greenville, South Carolina. Located near the Top Golf, the Studio is equipped with four pianos, allowing for two piano rehearsals and concerto accompaniments. The home recitals take place on a Steinway D Concert Grand piano in a room where the windows showcase a wooded backyard. For the curious student there is a homemade organ in the downstairs studio. Recordings can be made in the home with available professional audio equipment. Besides lessons, the studios are used as spaces to teach music theory, accompany instrumentalists, and hold master classes.
