Happy 2019!

I hope you and your family have enjoyed a lovely holiday over December!

Above is a short clip of my Christmas Eve, which we spent with the family

of our oldest son’s girlfriend. She is seen singing behind me on the right

hand side, and comes from a very music loving family. Both children seen (young

adults) play piano, sing, and her brother is active in school music and

plays the drums and guitar too. Their mother is also a trained singer.

Although I didn’t know until I got to their home that I would be accompany-

ing for “O Holy Night”, it was a joy to be asked, and then watch other young

musicians also play their piano, and a trombone duet too!

This is what I hope for my students, that their musical training will inspire

them to have a lifelong ability to participate musically in any setting that they

are a part of - whether it be planned ahead of time, or on a spur of the

moment.
