Concert report.

To all the performers:

Well played!

I heard many appreciative and positive comments about every one of your performances and felt very proud to be your teacher. It was great to hear our youngest performer Grace as well as Samuel H and Tricia who are advanced pupils, and everyone else too.

We had everything from Chopin to Carols, from Jazz to Romantic music, and lovely solos and beautiful duets. I was also impressed with the quality of your bowing, it was the best ever!

Many thanks to the family and friends who made up such an appreciative  audience.

If you took any photos and would be happy to share them on this blog do email them to me. It's always good to have a record of these evenings.

Lessons in December

Just a reminder about lessons in December.

The last lessons will be the week beginning on Monday 18th December, except for Grace, Amelia, Oliver  and Tricia.

Your last lesson will include Christmas songs, games, fun, chocolates and sweets!

See you then!

Fiona Lau.

Reminder!

A reminder that there are NO LESSONS on this Tuesday and Wednesday because of the Christmas Concert and my choir's concert for Mencap in the cathedral.

Last lessons before the Christmas Concert!

It's the Christmas Concert next week on Tuesday 5th December! This week we will have many last lessons and will practise performing your pieces rather than just playing them.

Zoe and Anna- duet
Amelia- Harmonies des Anges

Pupil Concert this term!

Our pupil concert will be this term on Tuesday 5th Dec at The Salvation Army Hall, Baddow Road, Chelmsford. It will be joint with Joanne and Simon Schultz, colleagues of mine who teach singing, piano and brass. It will be an opportunity for a little more variety than usual as well as hearing piano music of all styles and type.

So start to think what you would like to play; a solo, a duet, an exam piece, a Christmas carol. The choice is yours and we will discuss it and prepare in our upcoming lessons. A concert is a chance to play a piece you might be preparing for an exam, to play a piece you love, and to experience applause! Friends and family are all invited, there is plenty of room, and the Salvation Army will provide refreshments for us. It has always been a lovely evening of music and friendship and one I look forward to again.

No piano lessons next Monday and Tuesday!

REMINDER!

There will be no piano lessons on Monday 9th October and Tuesday 10th October! Of course I will expect you to be twice as good the week after...
