​

Greetings to my IM students and families! I am hoping that many of my students will see this extended break as an opportunity to make some good progress on their instruments. I am in the process of adding instructional videos to our "Spring Concert Music" page in hopes that our students will find them useful when they are practicing.  I also would be happy to help as much as possible with your child's progress.  Feel free to email questions or even send a video of your child playing if they would like some feedback from me.   

 

This is a time where technology can really help us stay connected, even through music.  Maybe your children can set up "play" dates on FaceTime or Skype with their friends who play similar instruments? Let's get creative!  Create a virtual concert for friends and family with Facebook Live or YouTube!  I would love to hear about the creative ways that you are keeping music a part of your daily life during this challenging time. 

​

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns.
