Steven Luksan

Steven Luksan is a composer and pianist based in Seattle. He offers “traditional” or Suzuki piano lessons in-person in north Seattle or anywhere in the world via digital video platforms.

Steven is an advocate for the performance of new and uncommon compositions (especially those by Scandinavian and American composers), and for the performance of chamber music in intimate settings. He is a teaching artist at Seattle Opera and is the founder and artistic director of the Saltwater Music Series (Des Moines, WA), a concert series dedicated to performances of local and off-the-beaten-path chamber music.

Steven Luksan is currently on the faculty of Music Center of the Northwest, where he teaches traditional piano lessons and Suzuki piano lessons, often blending the two teaching philosophies.

Steven received a Master’s Degree in Music Composition from the University of British Columbia and Bachelor’s Degrees in Music and Norwegian Language from the University of Washington. Since age 6, Steven has written music for solo piano and for ensembles of all sizes, from symphony orchestra to solo flute. His compositions have been performed throughout the USA, as well as in Canada, Norway, Spain, and Taiwan.
