Piano Recital

Miranda and Ryan had their Christmas recital just before we left on our trip. They worked very hard to memorize their pieces for the event and I am so proud of them for the work that they did and their performance. They both did a great job.

Ryan knew exactly what piece he wanted to play when he found out the it needed to be a classical piece. He chose Beethoven's 5th and was so excited about playing it that after the recital he asked when the next recital would be because he wanted to start learning a new piece. He played his piece every chance he got and it made practicing a lot easier.


Miranda also did a great job on her piece even though she only had three days to memorize the last two lines of Tchaikovsky's Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. After a lot of hard work she managed to get the piece memorized.

Olivia was convinced that the piano teacher was going to call her up for her turn to play the piano, so in order to make her happy I took a picture of her at the piano.
