What a wonderful group we have for this next school year. I am excited to work with each of the students. Right now we are in the thick of duet and ensemble preparation, trying to get all the students ready to perform.
I really enjoy duet and ensemble work, as it requires so much listening, counting and playing along with a partner. I would encourage parents to try to count along with their student as they are trying to play their duets, then allow them practice time with their metronomes to make sure they are spot on. This will help them immensely to be polished.
Please note that we will have group classes on October 12 and 13 to allow us to take the 14th - 16th off for fall break. We will plan on doing our fall recitals on October 28 & 29 here at my home.
Hope you enjoy these cool crisp days. Happy Fall!
Marilyn
