Let's Play Music

Angela and Emily participated in a music program called "Let's Play Music" and they had their rectal this evening. Emily is in the second year of the program called "Green Turtles" & "Yellow Indians". This year she made some had new classmates and new friends. She learned to play the keyboard with both hands. She really enjoys playing the keyboard. During the recial, she preformed "Practice Every Day" and "Tinga Layo" with her classmates on the keyboard. She sang several numbers with all the second year students and performed a puppet show as well. Emily has learned a lot of music theory through song and dance. It's an amazing program and Emily is doing really well in the program. She was especially proud to receive a yellow ribbon.


Angela is in the third and final year of the Let's Play Music program - "Purple Magic" & "Orange Roots". This year, she learned so much theory and played some really tough songs. She worked really hard and did an amazing job. She composed a piano piece with her teacher's help and named her piece "Rock & Roll Jazz". She practiced this song for months and performed it at the recital. She performed really well and at the end of the song there were tears in my eyes. She sang a few songs and performed a puppet show as well. She did an amazing job and I'm thrilled that we found a program that taught Angela to play the piano. Next year, she is taking piano lessons.
