Happy New Year!

The Winter Recital will be on January 24 at 3:30 pm at the Shoreline Free Methodist church 510 NE 175th St, Shoreline, WA 98155. Please plan to arrive no later than 3:15 and expect to stay until 5:30–recitals do not run more than 2 hours.  There will be a piano available and a table outside of the hall for goodies at intermission(s).  If you can not make the recital, we will try to arrange a family performance around that date.

Solo and Ensemble is coming soon!  Please make sure to have your application and pianist taken care of now.  Good luck everyone!

If you have an interest in joining a youth symphony, please let me know!  I’d be happy to help you prepare and choose appropriate audition material.

I will be performing a lot in the next few months including orchestral, opera, and chamber music performances.  Hope you can hear some!
