Blog Review: The Recital

The recital was held at ESS on Thursday. It was standing room only. M had about 12 people there just for her. A few other kids performed then it was Maddy's turn. She looked ravishing in her black skirt and pink shirt. She played Alouette and Ode to Joy with great skill. She gave a very condescending nod to the crowd between songs so they would know they were priviledged to be in the company of such genius. At the end she did a very polite curtsey and left (her piano book still sitting on the instrument, which apparently stressed her brother out a bit). We were so thrilled at the large turnout of family and friends and at the accomplishments of this very talented 9.8 year old. You better mark your calendars now for next year.
