just another morning here

Just for the record, and in case anyone else is interested, here are some videos. Joe’s at the end of the Suzuki Violin book 2 at the moment, and trying to record his graduation piece tomorrow; these pieces get recorded then sent off for adjudication before a big Graduation Concert in the Autumn - quite a nice way of doing things I think. Seriously hoping the recording goes well, a McDonalds lunch is hanging in the balance!

I’ve been meaning to do this for ages as one of the things he’s had to improve on is ‘leading in’ and carrying on even if he makes a mistake - I thought having a duet part might help him. Tried playing the piano accompaniment but I am rubbish at it, so we threw something together for Anna and they practiced then played it for the grandparents this evening. Final performance couldn’t go on flickr as it was too long. (This, of course, is what it’s meant to sound like!!)

Oh, and here’s Moon River, too - not quite the best it’s been but not bad, all the same - we still have a month or so to go until the Grade 2 exam.
