The Evolution of Music and Happy Halloween!

Time for an update!

I really enjoyed our recital last month. It was so fun to organize it chronologically: "The Evolution of Music." I love having a chance to play for you and seeing each of you prepare for and learn from each performance. It was a first recital for about half of you and I was proud of your effort. Two highlights for me were Avery's "Porcupine Dance" (very pokey) and Emmalyn's 3 pieces-especially the description of killing a spider at the end. :)

Now we look forward to Solo Competitions in February with Encore. There is some really beautiful music being learned. I hope you'll each work hard to do your music justice and bring it into the realm of creative artistry.

This week for group class we're performing your own compositions! Halloween Piece Time! This is such a fun group class where you get the freedom to make your own music and convey the fun and/or scariness of Halloween through music. Have fun with it!

See you bright and early!
