What recital means to me.........

Today's the big day. I never sleep well on 'Recital Eve'. Where'd the stands go, who took the pedal? We forgot to get the programs done? (Promise, they are done, and they are bigger than ever!) Recital to me is so many different things. I always have flashbacks to four years ago when I was so afraid it was my last recital with my 'kids'. Or the triumph of three years ago (I'm still here!). I remember Jay M's first recital, with his crouch like bow and huge smile. Jillian's realization that she did a GREAT job and then how it was even better for me when she invited me to her Christmas Pagent and she played the organ just a few short months later. Or the time Rachel stopped half way through....the entire time I was thinking that has the phrasing but doesn't sound exactly right............and she FLIPPED THE PAPER from top to bottom.

Commitment

Learning an instrument takes commitment. Commitment from the student (to apply their newly taught techniques at home) It takes 10,000 hours to master any new skill. That's a lot of music making. Commitment from the parent. Bringing the student to their lesson weekly, on time. Giving their student a comfortable, well lit place to practice. Helping their young musician be patient, learn time management, apply reading of pitch and addition/subtraction of rhythm counting. Just as importantly, commitment from their teacher. Commitment to be there, waiting with a smile. Commitment to be prepared, and attentive. Commitment to CONTINUITY. To be a good teacher takes talent, knowledge and skill. To be a GREAT teacher, you must always make it about your students first. Commitment to the students, is what Ms. Sandie, Ms. Joanna, Ms. Doreen and Ms. Stacey are all about.
