Though I wanted a low-key evening leading into the first day of the semester, attending Quinn’s winter orchestra concert was my top priority. Unlike some of my new students who may clamor to get seats in the back row tomorrow, Quinn proudly claimed her chair in the first row demonstrating her hard work.
She played the violin beautifully and made staying up past my bedtime well worth it! 🎶🎻🤗.
All the best,

Usually I like to relax and have a low key evening the night before the first day of teaching a new semester, but my daughter’s spring concert started at 7pm with a 6:15pm call time, and I wouldn’t miss it for the world.
Quinn, along with several fifth and sixth graders came ready to play some memorable music on their violins, violas and cellos. Though they’re all at different phases in the learning process, the audience cheered for them all. I, of course, cheered proudly as Quinn sat at first chair in her section playing Can-Can, Funny Fiddlin’ and a few other songs.
Next up is her band concert next week, and I can’t wait!
All the best,
Tanya
Learning to play an instrument, especially the violin 🎻 is no easy feat for most, especially learning to play in unison with others. But after months of hard work and occasionally nudging Quinn to practice 😅, she did an exceptional job. She was a part of three solos and performed like a true musician. I’m so proud of Quinn, her classmates and fellow fourth graders from the neighboring schools. 🤗
All the best,
Tanya
