Such a WIDE RANGE of styles! One of our best recitals yet? 🎹 ✨ 🎉

Yesterday was our 12th piano recital, marking over 500 pieces now performed by students. This was perhaps our most spectacular event, featuring a Steinway grand piano and a stunning space. Our newest student performed after just 14 lessons, and I made a rare piano appearance at the end. We were treated to some Stevie Wonder, Rush, WA Mozart, JS Bach, traditional Newfoundland folksongs, ragtime, Dua Lipa, Burgmüller, a fine Attwood Sonatina, a trumpet(!!) duet, a 4-handed piano duet, "Orinoco Flow," and more. We celebrated a student's RCM exam completion, and sang Happy Birthday to Frida. Summer electronic music sessions are scheduled, multi-cam studio video sessions are booked, and I'm personally on Cloud 9. Congrats everybody, and ever onward!!
