Elizabeth Quaile (January 20, 1874 – June 30, 1951) was an American piano pedagogue of Irish birth.
Early life and education
[edit]A native of Omagh, County Tyrone, Quaile emigrated to the United States early in her life; she settled in New York City, and undertook studies with Franklin Robinson before turning to teaching.
Career and further study
[edit]From 1916 until 1919, she chaired the piano department of the David Mannes School in Manhattan; she then traveled to Paris for more study, taking lessons with pianist Harold Bauer.
In 1921, she returned to New York City, founding the Diller-Quaile School of Music with Angela Diller that same year.
Quaile, sometimes together with Diller, produced a number of books and other works to be used in the teaching of piano, many of which saw much success.[1][2][3]
