Lots of Concerts

The last two weeks before Music Festival were full of performances. I already blogged about the Evening Recital a week and a half ago, but we had 6 other mini-recitals within those two weeks in order to give the students a chance to perform their pieces before Festival. We had Tuesday and Thursday informal recitals at BFA, and both Wednesdays we visited the local nursing homes.

Lately I’ve been forgetting to take pictures of all the events going on, but I did remember to bring it to the last nursing home concert on Wednesday.

One of my guitar students teamed up with his sister, who also happens to be one of my violin students. Here’s a portion of their performance:

These recitals definitely helped prepare the students for Music Festival! I’ve seen improvements since last week in most of the students who performed at the nursing home! Don’t worry, I’ll write an extensive post about Music Festival after it’s all done.
