Year End Recital

It is a busy month for me. Last Sunday, I was helping the Celebration of Excellence Recital for BCRMTA Vancouver Branch. It was nice to see so many outstanding students performing in a recital. Those students got 90 or above in their practical examination.

Coming Sunday May 15, it will be my students' recital. There will be about 20 students performing. They are working very hard for it. Some of them are preparing for their exam. The pieces are set and I need to prepare the program and print it nicely. 9 of them will also participate Festival on the Lake in the weekend. It will be busy weekend for them and me. Good luck to them.

The recital will start at 3:00pm at Room 102, Shadbolt Centre for the Art.

Then, next Monday, there will be a piano masterclass with Keiko Alexander for intermediate students. I need to be there to do the introduction and prepare the snack. Then, on Wed, it will be Owen's turn for his festival. I hope he will be fine. He just learns the pieces. It is amazing he can play all those 4 pieces from memory. He learned it less than 2 months ago.
