Claire's Recital

Claire had her first piano recital last weekend. It was just delightful. Grpa T and Grma M came all the way from Illinois to attend. So sorry Jeff missed it. Of course, he's been hearing the piece at home for weeks and weeks. We feel so lucky to have found a really excellent teacher. She is firm, but encouraging. Kind, funny, talented and efficient. She also takes time to really get to know Claire and the things that are important to her.

The piece is "One Little Brave Toy Soldier."

Notice the pause before she started, and that little curtsy? Too cute.

I am sure she was wonderful. I remember my first. Me knees were knocking so hard it wasn't easy to even walk. LOL
