Were you fortunate enough to see fireworks? So many were canceled due to questionable weather. It's turning out to be a beautiful night, but you can't really know with storms. See you for lessons in July!

So great to see Logan and Riley in person for the recital. They have Zoom lessons as they live an hour away! We played duets today without ever having rehearsed them together! That shows what strong players they are!!!

This was our Holiday Recital two weeks ago. What a beautiful event we had! It was a beautiful space and the kids all did such a great job! If we weren't already in the Christmas spirit when the recital started, we certainly were when we left!
Thanks to all the families for all you do to support these young musicians!

I just got the photos from our Holiday Recital a couple weeks ago! This was Jack, bringing the event to a close with a beautiful rendition of the piece Candlelight by Andrea Dow. I'm excited to post more on my Keys and Reeds Music Studio page later today.

Riley and Logan surprised me by preparing a Halloween duet for this afternoon's Zoom performance! It was SO GOOD! Great costumes, too. Everyone did a great job!

Happy Almost Halloween! 2 more days until our Halloween Zoom recital. Students have been preparing for about a month and are ready to perform their fun and creepy pieces for a zoom audience!

Then, believe it or not, we transition right into our Christmas music!
That gives us 8 short weeks to learn as many Christmas pieces as we can!

Another successful Spring Showcase! It was standing room only! Everyone who said they’d come, came. The performances were great! They can be really proud of themselves today! Thanks to all the families and performers! Bravo!!!

I so enjoyed attending the CMS production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory yesterday. My grandchildren, Henry and Helen, accompanied me and we had a great time. I have spent several weeks working with my oboe student, Jack, who was part of the pit orchestra. Several weeks of individual practice and rehearsals was a real growth experience for him and he rose to the occasion. I could hear his solo parts nice and clear, while at other times I could hear his sound blending with the others. Great job, Jack! Congrats to the entire team who created a wonderful experience for your audiences!
So proud of Jack!
