Recital news
I am so very proud of the
work
my students did in preparing
their pieces for this event!
Also,
because of their hard work,
we were able to raise well
over
$300.00 for Meskerem and
Duhimbaze.
Money is still coming in
and so I
do not have the total yet.
Thank you and enjoy the
pictures below!

In January, I will be pairing
my students togther to learn
duets for the upcoming
All Duet recital
to be held

at the Bridgton Alliance Church.
There will be a rehearsal for this
event on March 10th from
9-11 a.m. at the church, as well.
At
Play in the Garden of Sound
At last,
I am releasing a CD with everyone's favorite classical pieces on it.
It will
likely be ready within the next month.
I am
putting the finishing touches on it and then I have to send it
away
to be professionally duplicated and the graphics printed.
You
may pre-order your copy for $10 or purchase my other CD
I am
also releasing (What's on My Mind---all original piano pieces)
and
get both for $18.
The
music on this CD are pieces that I have composed for various reasons.
It's a great CD to introduce children to classical music since the pieces
are relatively short and creative. There are many different sets
of compositions. All have musical scores available.
Here
is the back of the CD so that you can see the titles of the pieces.
This
CD can be bought for $10 or buy both At Play in the Garden of Sound
and
What's on My Mind... for $18.
This collection of 12
pieces depicts aspects & experiences
from every season of
the year.
There are 3 pieces for
each season, each at a different level.
Included with the book
is a CD. There are 3 tracks for each piece.
The first track is the
performance track that includes
both the piano part and
the orchestration together.
The second track is just
the piano part.
The third track is the
orchestration alone
and is for the pianist
to play along with.
From a gentle prayer to
a full-blown blizzard,
these pieces are sure
to not only have
“Something For Every
Season”
but also “something for
everybody!”
Enjoy! They were composed just for you!
To order your copy, see Kim. Each book w/CD is $12.00.
Soaring Sonatinas & Fantastical Fantasias
These Five Finger pieces were designed
to be both exciting
and accessible for the late elementary
level student of any age.
The pieces are arranged in a progressive
order and help
students transition from the late elementary
level into
the early intermediate level.
Various descriptive terms, dynamic
markings,
accents, staccato, legato and tenuto
articulations are
used. As the pieces progress, some
finger crossing,
scales, arpeggios and chord inversions
are introduced.
The fantasias explore the I, IV, and V7
chords
of each key in a rhythmic and fanciful
fashion.
The sonatinas explore changing moods,
tempos
and related keys with each movement while
introducing
the student to the sonata form on a smaller
scale.
I hope you enjoy these pieces!
They were composed just for you!
Each book is
$10.00.

Yes, that is correct! We
have a gumball machine in the waiting room.
The gum is 25 cents.
All money earned will go towards
the Kids Playing For Kids
campaign for Meskerem and Collin!
Thank you for your participation in this worthy cause!
Be thinking
ahead as to who you will ask to sponsor you for playing in this upcoming
recital.
No amount
is too small. This is a great way to use your musical talent!
