She has worked with renowned orchestras and conductors, given recitals in famous concert halls, participated in festivals, recorded for major recording and music publishing companies… She combines her extensive concert-giving activity with a teaching career in Mannes College of Music in New York. Known for her insightful and caring teaching methods which have produced many a competition winner, Ms. Dokovska was elected Chair of the Piano Department at the Mannes College of Music. In 1999 she founded and became artistic director of the annual Mannes Festival, which grew into a staple of New York’s musical life. She is also artistic director of the Southwest Virginia Festival for the Arts.
