J.S. Bach wrote some of the most beautifully complex music. These students did such a wonderful job sharing their music written by Bach along with all their fun seasonal music! I love making Christmas ornaments each year for my students. This year I put a copy of the music you learned from J.S. Bach on your ornament. I love you love it!

Sharing some Christmas Cheer
Some students have been sharing Christmas cheer through playing their music at the Post Office for all the people standing in line! Hearing and watching them play Christmas music cheered them up while waiting in long lines. Thanks for sharing your music!

100 Pages of Music Celebration
Over the summer I challenged the students to learn and play 100 pages of music. I did this because I knew it would increase their music reading ability, help them to play A LOT of different kinds and styles of music, and improve their sight-reading skills, and be TONS of FUN!
In order to complete the challenge, the students needed to learn about 10 pages a week of music.
Some students went about and beyond and learned even more.....

Quartet Time!
It's almost show time for our piano quartets! They are sounding so good...but so loud too!
It is so exciting to play in a piano ensemble and these kids are learning some great team work and the beauty of how their part fits into the whole to create this beautiful music!

Solo Recital and Graduation!
I am so proud of Krissy! She gave an absolutely beautiful Solo Senior Recital! It has been a joy for me to teach her over the past 3.5 years and help her find more joy in music and grow in her piano skills. Tonight she shared that all in a beautiful way and it was so fun to celebrate all she has accomplished! I'm excited for her and all the great things she will continue to do as she heads to college!

Piano Testing done!
The Arizona Study Program is such a fantastic goal for the students to work towards.
They study throughout the year and come to be evaluated on their Theory, technique, performance, and Music History.
It is such a big triumph to complete it. All of my students received high honors and performed 4 pieces of music by memory. I'm so proud of all the hard work they did...because it helped them grow so much!
