Piano Recital

Michaela started piano lessons at the beginning of the school year and she just had her first recital on Monday. They had to pick a challenging Christmas song. Michaela picked a song out of the Hymns Made Easy book, and then she composed her own ending to go with it. She is doing such a great job playing, she memorizes everything and we have to remind her to read the music while she is playing. She has such a great ear that if you tell her a song she can play around until she figures it out.

(Don't forget to scroll to the bottom of the blog and pause the background music.)

Well atleast we know where all the musical ability went, right to those little fingers. That was just great I am so glad the piano is getting put to some use. Keep up the great and beautiful work Michaela Joy. Also, she looks a little like mom in this video, or maybe it's just me.

Michaela, you are such a natural! I wish music came that easy to me. Just don't ever quit.
