Brode played in his first ever recital this month and really did a spectacular job. He was so excited and focused. He played We Three Kings, and he did so great. I have it on video but I am having trouble getting it to load so I will put up a couple of pictures for your viewing pleasure. I am so proud of his hard work and his willingness to humor me and take piano lessons. I am insistent that each of my children will play the piano until they are familiar enough with notes to read music well. Then at that point they will be free to choose an instumnet of their choice. Lets see if I can enforce this. So far so good!
