RECITAL SEASON!

Hello Piano People!

Here we are in November already!  Most people hurl themselves headlong into holiday thinking immediately after Halloween.  I actually heard my first Christmas carol on the radio yesterday. And my Starbucks cup was already in the Christmas spirit!


I think my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. Time with family. Yummy food. Not too much stress.  What'st not to like?

But honestly, you know what I look forward to this time of year?

PIANO RECITALS!!

This year, I am hosting an end of term piano recital for my students at the Community Music Center on Sunday, December 10th.

There will be two sessions:

Session One
 4:00-5:00 p.m. This session designed for younger, more beginning students.  There will be a reception at 5:00 with many goodies (bring some too if you're able!).

Session Two
6:00-7:00 p.m. This session is designed for older and/or more advanced students. There will be a reception at 7:00 with many goodies (bring some too if you're able!).

You can sign up for whichever session suits your student and/or schedule.  If you need help deciding, ask me! 

Most of my students have chosen a recital piece already.  My beginning students will be chosing this week.

My recitals are fun!  We do not worry about mistakes.  But if there are any nerves, be assured I will be sitting right there next to you at the piano to help!

Students can dress however they are comfortable for being on stage. Some like to dress fancy, some like to just where comfortable clothes (like they wear to school).

Be yourself! :)

I also want to let you know, that I giving one of my family friendly, educational concerts.

I would love to see my students and their families at my concert!  I am really excited about featuring women composers and their male counterparts!
