For a walk down memory lane, here he was at last year's recital: 2017 Christmas Recital

Spring Piano Recital

What a busy weekend...Lacrosse and a recital all in one day.  Charlie continues to practice and try hard at piano.   Also, a few weeks ago Charlie recently performed in the Junior Festival where an adjudicator judges the students and gives them a score.  Charlie received a Superior ranking - the highest mark possible for his level.  Way to go!

He's so little on the giant stage!

These kids were amazing (pianists and violinists)!!

His wonderful teacher, Kendra. 

Piano

Charlie is really enjoying playing the piano - here's a song he learned this week.  Enjoy!

Piano Progression

Charlie has been progressing wonderfully on the piano.  He's now starting to play songs with both hands at the same time, which takes a lot of coordination.  We are so proud of him sticking with it!

Charlie's First Recital

Charlie had his first piano recital tonight and he did amazing!  I would have been shaking in my boots to get up in front of everyone, but Charlie was a rock star.

He played two solo songs and one duet.  However, he got mixed up in his order and ended up playing his duet solo before he was supposed to, so he actually played it twice.  He ended up doing four songs on stage!    

He did forget to smile when he was on stage after his songs, but I really don't blame him!  We were grinning from ear to ear.  Below are the videos of his songs.
