As both soloist and accompanist, Dr. Aicher has performed at many venues and is a founding member of Mod 2, a duo with English Horn player Kevin Chavez. Together with Mr. Chavez and Ryan Michael Hartman, Dr. Aicher hosts the podcast "Greenroom Conversations: The Process, Unplugged," a series of interviews with performing arts professionals. "Greenroom Conversations" explores successful individual careers for themes that may help listeners make their own artistic way.
Dr. Aicher was Assistant Professor of Piano and Piano Pedagogy at West Chester University f Pennsylvania from 1999 to 2003. The Graduate Pedagogy courses she has taught at Manhattan School of Music since 2001 are for all majors; this approach using principles and skills that are applicable to every musician is a specialty that she and predecessor Vera Wills developed that is unique in the field of pedagogy.
