A huge congratulations to those who performed in today’s spring recitals at Bradford!! You all make me very proud, even though some of you did not practice all year. Your hard work and (last minute) effort shows that you truly love music and are willing share with people around you. How lucky are the rest of us who get a chance to hear you :]

Unfortunately, I will be taking a vacation from teaching this summer, so I will miss seeing all my students. I hope some of them take advantage of studying with a sub, but I know summertime is the time for fun and play. Here are some pics of the school since this time I made sure not to forget my camera.  See you all next year!! XOXO

It’s finally summertime again… I can’t believe it’s been six months since R and I got married ~ time just flies by!!  As kids are playing outside and the trees are growing greener and more lush each day, I start to think more about what each day will hold for me.  R will be leaving for HI in a few weeks while I have some loose ends to tie: a few wedding gigs, Luna coaching and recording session, student recitals, and private lessons to give.  Not too busy it seems, but I’m also starting up a new collection hobby which might break my bank, so I’ll keep quiet about it until I have something to show.  Hint: it’s nothing related to music.

I just played in a Catholic wedding yesterday with some fellow HBCO friends.  It was my first baroque gig!  And I have to say that I really enjoyed it.  Not only do I get to sightread familiar old tunes, I get to play them on GUT STRINGS in a nice modern church.  The pure and calm sounds were elegantly appropriate for works of Bach and Pachelbel :]  I am a fan of baroque music in weddings!
