DECEMBER 19th-Christmas Celebration!

An update on our Christmas Celebration. All first year student's will play between 4-5pm. First year students will play 2 pieces from the songs they have learned this last semester, and also participate in a Christmas Ensemble.
All other student's will play at 5:15pm. This is not a required recital if your child has already played in the October celebration, but everyone is welcome to perform, but you do need to tell me if your child will attend. This celebration we will dress in our best clothes, and bring 1 dozen goodies to share after the performance.

MORE CLAVINOVA FEST WINNERS

Not only did our studio win the composition and coloring contest, four of our students won the door prizes on Friday night. Congratulations to Andrew Chugg, Carter Green, Austin Schaffer and Landen Roylance. They won a music bag and pen!

CLAVINOVA FEST WINNERS MIKAELA FRONGNER/COMPOSITION AND PARKER ADAMS/COLORING CONTEST! CONGRATULATIONS!

I feel blessed this year. Already 2 students have taken top honors at the Clavinova Festival. Mikaela Frongner won the composition contest with her original composition Mikaela's Theme, and then Parker colored an incredible picture to take top honors for the coloring contest. Congratulations to both of you! On Friday evening, November 13th, Mikaela will perform her composition, and receive an award. Parker will also receive an award for his picture. Maybe, just maybe someone from our studio will win the Clavinova? I feel lucky oops I mean blessed!

A CLASSICAL CHRISTMAS!

On the 19th of December we will have yet another piano celebration. This will be at the piano gallery in Riverdale. We will wear our best dress and yes, we can bring a treat to share. The celebration will be held from 4-6 pm. 1st year students will begin the celebration at 4pm. Then at 5:15 whoever would like to perform from 2nd year to Teen class will be given the opportunity to perform one classical piece. I know this is a busy time of year, that is why this celebration is optional. Please inform me immediately if your child will be attending this celebration. If we have more than 15 students who would like to play, we will add an additional hour to the celebration.
