On November 17, 2012 we had another music recital… There were 15 students who preformed 4 violin students and 12 piano (one student takes both with me). Here are a few photos taken by Sylvia. This recital was a little different than others because no only did they get their composer statuette, they also had the opportunity to earn a trophy for having a certain amount of practice per week (I also made them put in a certain amount of practice to continue with me for the next “season”). Happily, I had 4 students who earned a trophy so that was exciting.
I also had made these pendants for my all my students as a little gift from me (the boys got similar tie tacks). I think they liked them…I see some of them wearing them once in a while.
This isn’t my photo, but Jared and I constructed a ribbon sandwich that used pumpernickel on the top to make it look like piano keys—it got eaten before I remembered to take a photo dang it! It was cute though.
I really enjoyed this season’s recital. The kids that I have been blessed to have in my program have progressed nicely and some of them amazingly (for some reason I could make a direct correlation between their practice time logged and their progression made. huh.) It’s really fun to teach these kids and I’m excited to see how they will continue to progress.
How cool! I love how your pendants turned out and the sandwich idea is so clever!
