Hello there! I am excited to get ready for Christmas. I love having a Christmas Recital. It is always fun to share our music with family and friends. It is good to expose your children to an atmosphere like this for many reasons. This teaches children that music is meant for sharing! This is one talent that will bless others simply by listening to it. Everyone loves to sing or dance or relax to music. This skill carries on to the future! Having confidence to play in front of others is like building a tower. You have to start at the bottom with little blocks. I hope that your children will love playing with others.
Some of you have noticed that the lessons are becoming challenging. Remember, practice makes predictability. Some times a song will require two weeks to master - and that is OK!! If it takes longer, it usually means that it will sound more advanced. That is cool isn't it! Practicing 5 days for around 15 -20 min. will get you a solid start in training. Keep it up!
Please note that the recital is on Sunday, Dec. 9 at 2 p.m. I needed to change the time to accomodate a few students. Hope this doesn't effect anyone too much.
SBI - Be sure to practise the ensemble, singing, patterns and keyboard. Your recital songs sound great! Try to play them without your book!
SBII - Practise is key for this level. It gets hard at this busy time to get it all in. Do your best and keep it Happy! Don't forget to clap your ensemble at home!
MBI - Give extra effort to your recital song. Try to play it without the book. You are doing great!
I can hear the bells ringing...it's the most wonderful time, of the year...

p.s. ask me for a candy cane next class!
