The 2010 Year End Recital was held June 5 at Ellesmere United Church at SFU. It was a successful mini-concert for me and my little stars. I played 2 duets with my partner, Jammy Smith, for the opening and closing of the recital. It was a good opportunity for both parents and students to listen to different piano music with different arrangement. Students did very well. They overcome their nervousness and showed the best that they can. I believe playing in public is a precious way to learn how to perform in a public setting. It feels totally different than playing at home or at lesson. It requires extra concentration and control. I’m so proud of my stars! One last useful comment is that if you want the audience to enjoy what you play, you have to enjoy the music that you’re making!
Look forward to the Christmas Recital in December and once again, thank you for all the support from the families!
