March 4th Recital Update

Wow...

As I said at the recital, everyone was prepared and everyone was ready. Even knowing this, I was still blown away by all the solid performances!

I saw everyone demonstrate all the details we had been working on in lesson these past few weeks. The graduating students played Gossec Gavotte with confidence and ease. Seitz Concerto's were played with impeccable tone and clarity. The many Gavotte's shone in their unique ways and everyone landed form, intonation, big bows, tone and dynamics. Young Book 1 students set up their posture and played like professionals.

Were there mistakes here and there? Of course, but NO ONE let these little things get in the way of all the hard work that was put into preparing for the recital and all the incredible musical moments that were displayed. Everyone had a smile as they left the stage - this is success!

Thank you also for a successful fundraising event. Even though there were fewer of us at this recital, we ended up making more than at last years recital. I am so grateful for your continued support and hope the winners enjoy the prizes!

One last reminder that I am taking two weeks off for March Break and lessons will resume on Monday March 26th. 
Group Class will resume on Tuesday March 27th. 
If you have any practice questions or need a violin tune up, I will be around home so please feel free to send me an email.

Also, be on the look out over March Break for the release of repertoire for the Year End Recital. Once this is released, please print or save the list and start working on these pieces!

Have a safe and happy March Break!
