Piano Recital

We had a great piano recital Monday night.  It was so fun to watch the students finally get to play their pieces for an audience after weeks of preparation!  For many, this was their first recital and nerves were high, but I’m glad they moved past that and had the experience of playing in front of others (without tears…that’s always a plus.) :)

Here are a few pictures from the evening:

I was surprised that all 19 of my students were able to be at the recital and play…that was a blessing!

I couldn’t resist posting this…Dean’s laughing face is priceless.

 

The “W” family gave me some beautiful roses…and this little lady wanted to be in the picture too. :)  (I look incredibly tired here…possibly because I was…or maybe just relieved….)

Food and fellowship.

With a few of my students:

These ladies aren’t students, but they’re great friends!

Future student?

I have found that being a piano teacher is a very rewarding task.  It’s such a blessing to be able to take a gift given by the Lord and invest it in the lives of others and then watch them use it too.  I’m grateful for all my students and the opportunity I have to teach them, and in the process I learn so much too!
