Studio Recital ~ Spring 2011

All year long, my students work hard at their piano and harp lessons.  Each Spring, they have the opportunity to participate in my formal studio recital and to perform for family and friends.  This year, we held the recital at a new facility - Merriman's Playhouse in South Bend. 

This year's pieces, composers and performers:

• Blue Dolphin;  Brown (Rylie W.)
• Winter Play; Greenleaf (Anna B.)
• Ozark Dance; Costley (Alyse C.)
• Dancing Clouds; Brown (Yarden K.)
• Agent in Disguise;  Leaf (Joseph D.)
• Call of the Wilderness; McLean (Lara C.)

• The Knight Errant, Op. 100 No. 25; Burgmuller (Camille A.)
• Nocturne, Op. 72 No. 1; Chopin (Jacy S.)

After the recital, we had an awards ceremony.  Students received their medals from the Achievement in Music fesitval that was held last November, along with medals and trophies for their participation in the Gold Medal Challenge we did as a studio last year.  Everyone attending was treated to a post-recital reception, including made-to-order beverages from a coffee cart. 

Our next recital will be in August, and will feature duets and other chamber group performances.  Contact me for more information about piano lessons or harp lessons in South Bend!
