Christmas Recital

This year we had our piano recital that the Library so we could fit all the families. I think the kids really liked that. All the kids did a great job. I'm so proud of how hard they worked and the time they put into their songs. 
I think everyone was a little nervous, but they played beautifully. 


 Alexa played Away In A Manger. She was really excited to play because it was a harder piece than last year and she's really enjoying learning how to play. Because of the technic I use to teach the kids, Alexa hasn't learned the value of the notes yet so she worked really hard on her rhythm and tempo. It helps that she knew the song already.
 Caely played Frosty the Snowman. She's practicing all the time, I love listening to my kids play.

Tyler didn't get to play this year, mostly because he didn't take the time to practice but also, he was really busy and didn't have the time either.

One of the kids I teach, J, is around the same level as Tyler and Caely. Lexi is quickly catching up, but it's funny because all my kids want to pass him in their playing. Whatever motivates you, I guess. It's just a cute competition they have with themselves.
