Saturday, June 15th is our first program this year at Excelsior Nursing and Rehab, 1003 Meadow Lark Lane, located one block east of Excelsior Hospital. We will present traditional folk tunes for the residents beginning at 10:30 a.m. We have piano, sax, trombone, ukulele and tin whistle. Other instruments and voice are welcome.
Pictures will be taken at the close. We will be in their dining area with a limited number of chairs. There is a code on the front door (door only open for 15 seconds at a time) – use same code to exit.
Recital: Thank you for your attendance and for all the compliment cards I received; that was unexpected and greatly appreciated. At the recital, I forgot to hand out the certificates for 100 days of practice: 800 days to Kate Houck and 1400 days to Patty Summers. Also, I missed the certificate for completing the second level of One Minute Club which was earned by Kate Houck that week! Congrats Kate. Sorry I missed this; you worked hard.
Tuition for 30 minute piano lessons is $60 a month. Many of you have earned a discount; ask if you are in question.
There will be no lessons on July 4th. Summer break will be July 21 through August 4th (2 weeks). July tuition will be discounted.
How to Practice:

- Break it into small sections.
- Practice a little bit each day.
- Repetition – play it until you cannot play it wrong.
- Record yourself
- Have a goal each practice session.
- Mentally go through the music before you play a note.
