Spring 2011 Recital

Today was Cory's piano recital.  Six years of playing piano paid off today. It was so beautiful. Yes, as a parent no matter what noise your child makes is beautiful because you are proud. Today was different, this was his last one. He has been working on his music for almost  a year. He even played another song selection for the fall recital so that he could have more time to practice for this one.
This morning, he showed us what he can do! He played The Entertainer by S. Joplin, and then he treated us all to a musical treat. He played The Wild Horseman by Schumann, arranged by Hunley. Yes, there it was in black and white on the program (arranged by HUNLEY!). He has been working on adding his own touches to the music for a while now. Yes, today I burst with pride watching him tickling those ivorys! The children all played well, and it was such a treat to the ears!
