Happy Halloween! A week and a half ago was my studio Halloween Festival. I always like to do some kind of pass along game during the event. The trick is to think outside the box so I'm not doing the same thing every year. This year I had the idea to do a trick or...
Events and Recitals
Having fun with iMovie
I recently downloaded the iMovie app. Even though I have iMovie on my Mac, I wanted to try it out as an app and I have to say that I think I like it even better as an app. I find it super easy to use. After seeing one of the themes available that went perfectly with...
Recital Preparation
Recital season is upon us! I don't know about you but right now I have so much going on that I feel like I'm swimming in deep waters. Spring is such a crazy time. I have so much going on in May that I have officially named it MAY MADNESS! My recital is on Saturday,...

Halloween Music for Beginners

Magic of Music End of the Year party
Our Magic of Music recital was on May 14th and went well. This year for my performance I decided to do a "magic trick" and had a student pick 4 letters out my top hat where I created an improvisation starting with those letters and developing a piece. It seemed to...
