November Events
November was a welcome break from the craziness of the previous months. Nonetheless, I still had some amazing experiences working with fellow music teachers and students!
Student participants of master class smiling in front of grand piano.
I taught my first masterclass with students of Yellow Door Music Studio. Over the course of an hour, I worked with 6 students of varying levels to help them consider new musical perspectives and gain confidence performing. It was a great experience for everyone, myself included!
Later that same afternoon, I volunteered to help with the annual Sonata-Sonatina Festival, hosted by Piano Teachers Forum of GR. This year, 175 students performed pieces, all of which were memorized. 6 of my students entered this year and all did a wonderful job.
High school students, Hope College’s VERITAS choir, and Holland Chorale presenting a joint concert for Adventures in Harmony 2025.
