I offer bi-annual opportunities for my students to share what they are learning with each other and their families and friends. Each student is invited to prepare a song or tune to share as a solo or as a duet (with me or someone else).
The conclusion of our time together is celebrated with a Finale of 2 Group Tunes that all students have worked on in preparation, but the Recital is the first opportunity to play them all together.
Spring 2012: May 6th 2 pm
(I will open the doors at 1 pm for tuning up and warm-up)
Location: Lutheran Campus Ministry at Colorado State University
805 S. Shields (across from Moby Arena)
Participants are invited to bring cookies or other treats to share for the reception that follows.
