2013 Class Recital Pics

Congratulations! And, thank you students for a successful evening of respectable performances.

We will evaluate said performances in master class (general comments; comparative performance) and lessons (specifics).

Points to Ponder
  1. planning: repertoire selection; effective organization for memorization
  2. live on stage: concentration and distraction
  3. musicality and musicianship: expression and technical precision
  4. collaboration: stage presence and connection, rhythmic blend and balance
  5. physiology and performance practice: tone, intonation, articulation, vibrato
  6. biography: maturation as a musician
To our audience... .

A very special thanks to our audience members present in the PTY Hall whose gracious comments were and are much appreciated. It was good to see so many familiar faces and many new faces.

And, to our web audience - thank you for listening! Please feel free to leave your comments in the com-box below.
