Gwendolyn Peiper was a well-known piano teacher in the St. Louis area for many years.
Peiper’s son and SLU School of Medicine alum (’77) Stephen C. Peiper, M.D. and his
wife Dr. Zi-Xuan (Zoe) Wang, donated several pianos to SLU in her honor and established
an endowment for a yearly piano concert. The goal of the program is to host a concert once a year in Gwendolyn’s honor, showcasing the talent in our
SLU community while fostering well-being and appreciation of music.
