Tonight our Makeup Class was dedicated to Recital Performance. Two students attended and were able to play each of their three solos from MEMORY! They are also very well prepared on their ensemble piece, which is presented to you below. Please keep in mind, that this is just two fifths of their quintet and this brother/sister duo have accompaniment parts. You’ll have attend our recital on January 12 to hear the completed song.

Please Mark Your Calendars

Piano Studio Closings (4 of 4 for 2012):

    • December 25/26/27

TUESDAY students: I plan to be open on Tuesday, January 1. Since it is technically a holiday, you may request a change to a different time that day or to another day. If this is your desire, please let me know as soon as possible, as times will be on a first come/first served basis. I’ll be happy to accommodate as many as possible.

Piano Makeup Class

    • Monday, December 17 – 4:00 p.m – one hour (3 weeks before the show)
    • Monday, January 7 – 4:00 p.m – one hour (the week of the show)

Our Recital is just FIVE WEEKS away . . . That means only FOUR MORE LESSONS and TWO CLASSES are left before the show. Most of our songs are locked in and many of you are very close to performance-readiness. Our goal is to have all solos MEMORIZED. More on that coming soon . . .

Cookie Sales – Another Huge Success!!

Our participating students earned a combined total of over $200 in brand new music of their choice. The students also helped to raise money to support our 21st Anniversary Recital this January with complete success. They have collected enough funds to cover many of our show’s expenses, allowing us to open our show to the public with FREE ADMISSION for all who wish to attend.

Congratulations to our top seller, Sophie! 83 Dozen!!

Her family helped to single-handedly earn over $250 for recital expenses, at the same time earning Sophie an incredibly large pile of new books to play.

Grace’s efforts came in second place! 33.5 Dozen!

Her family was able to earn over $100 toward our upcoming recital, as well earning Grace five new books!

We would like to thank the community for their support and would also like to send a little smile to the second shift at HMAC who are going to be crawling the walls on October 23rd after digging into their 166 boxes of cookies!!
