Piano Pleasures

We couldn't be more pleased with our piano teacher, Emma Patterson. She is amazingly accomplished on both the piano and cello (she has a Master's in Cello Performance from BYU), but what I love most about her is her upbeat, yet down-to-earth, personality. We have never had a better music teacher and we're so blessed to have her for one more year. Here she is with Lissie and Bryant after the performances. So lovely!


Their recital was last Saturday, and as their mother I could watch the performance recordings over and over and over again . . . but I don't expect anyone else to have such motherly inclinations about any of my children's accomplishments. Thus, I will only post the highlights -- Lissie playing the first movement of Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven



and Bryant playing a duet with Matthew Steffen called In der Halle des Bergkoenigs by Edvard Grieg.

The duetists -- Good job boys!

You all were spectacular!
