The Youth Symphony Concert!
Ella Mae is soon to graduate from the Twinkle group and move to Book 1 of Suzuki violin lessons. She just started her second song and is loving it!
Molly is progressing well--she is still working on her Twinkles, though she knows the bow rhythm to each variation correctly. Her fingers are too weak and uncoordinated yet for her to play the actual strings on the violin, but she's building up strength and soon, we'll be hearing her play just like the big kids!
Bearett and Amelia are currently in Book 1 and are learning their seventh song! There are 17 songs in Book 1 and 10 books total in Suzuki Violin School.
Then it was off to a new local fruit stand for some tasty treats!
And a stop at The Property to check on our baby avocado tree!
Then Taekwondo.
And then to our first orchestra concert!
Our friend Ms. Ava was “First Violin,” and we finally got to experience her talent in person for the first time! She and her mother are the reasons the children began violin lessons with Mrs. Hinkelman and we are so grateful.
Mrs. Hinkelman’s current 15 year old student won a competition prior to this concert, in which she earned herself the prize of a solo part in the performance. We got to see her play her violin solo as well and what a treat it was!
