It’s hard to plan this year with the pandemic! I’d like to suggest informal recitals online (live, not recorded) this semester. We’ll see what happens in the spring and plan more then! I’ll email everyone with events as they come up (such as master classes) and put them on my studio calendar (see link for website above and you’ll find the calendar there).
Studio informal online recitals
Friday and Saturday Oct. 2nd and 3rd
Friday and Saturday Nov. 6th and 7th
Saturday Nov. 14th online studio recitals
Saturday May 15 and/or May 22 for spring recital (location and times to be determined)
I hope we’ll also have some sort of December holiday celebration perhaps creating a group or solo recordings that we can send to family and friends.
We may also have some small driveway or outdoor location concerts for the small groups that are practicing pieces together.

Group 1: Lennox, Sam, Giacomo, Jason, Lorenzo
