Mini concert

While we are really missing our Suzuki music programs in Virginia, the kids have adapted very well to a vastly different philosophy and style....I think that the Soviet trained musicians and the Suzuki method are polar opposites !!!!  Not a lot of "everyone can play" or "lets do the best you can and have fun" going on here!  Azalia and Hosiat have tamed down a little bit and the kids have come to realize that this is just another opportunity to do something differently than we are used to.  

"CooCoo" by Grace- she has begun piano/music lessons with Hosiat

piano duet with Hosiat, our piano teacher

A requirement for Azalia, our violin teacher,  before moving onto a new piece is to perform the pieces you are finishing with piano.  Luke is doing a small family concert to finish up Suzuki Book 1.  

It is days like these that make all of the practicing, planning, scheduling, debating, and encouraging worth while....
