Happy International women’s day to all! Here’s one of the best at work.
We’ve been quiet on here of late, but we’re beavering away doing what we do best, teaching and performing.

What a fantastic evening we had! All our budding musicians are thriving here at Harmony Tree.
With the most nurturing teachers and Hannahkey. I’m thrilled to announce that ‘Student of the Term’ is Skyla Pearce!!!
Her confidence and performance has come on leaps and bounds this term, Nick and I are very impressed with her progress!
Well done, to everyone who performed, it takes real courage to play In front of of an audience, and you all played beautifully.
Happy Christmas one and all!

So proud of our year here at HTMA, we have so many fantastic student achievements!!
Special mention to Zayd Kahn, who achieved a v. high merit - 2 marks off distinction, but mainly because of his exquisite performance of Film music 'Pirates of caribbean' and 'Interstellar' at the concert on Friday. Zayd demonstrated flair and a fluidity of expression. Thanks to his teacher Rob for being such a great mentor.
Huge congratulations also to Clodagh and Cormack Mcarthy who have progressed so well with their teacher Nick, overcoming nerves to perform their pieces (twice) at the concert.
Also a special mention to Esme Sodomola who expertly improvised on the fly, just because she felt inspired in the moment! Just delicious…
Im so impressed with Vincent Briffa and his composition, which was performed at the conert too, what a brilliant piece of music and self -expression!!
This is the kind of community I have always wanted to create, one with freedom of expression going hand in hand with more traditional achievements, the childs enjoyment at the heart.
here are some photos from the event.

WOW!
We had the most wonderful, heart-warming, beautiful concert. Yesterday was our 3rd bi-annual concert, and I am so very proud of all our students and teachers! Our students played so well, some stumbled and picked themselves back up, some played their piece twice after a false start, and some played with poise and confidence, mostly because they performed last year- practice and nurture and facing fears really do conquer all.
We’ve had a great year!!
More lovely photos to come, here’s a few sneaky peeks.
We also raided £100 for Doctors Without Borders!
Thank you all,
Our lovely community is thriving.
