Our 2026 Harp and Piano Spring RecitalFriday night’s Spring Recital was such a special evening! This was our longest recital to date, coming in at just over an hour and fifteen minutes, and it was filled with beautiful music from start to finish.
We had 11 piano students and 3 harpists perform, with a wonderful variety of styles—everything from hymns and classical pieces to pop favorites. The program ended with a lovely harp and piano duet of Canon in D, which was a perfect way to close the night. One of my favorite parts of teaching is walking alongside each student on their musical journey. Seeing fingering patterns finally click, hearing difficult passages come together smoothly, and watching pieces that took months of practice come to life in performance—it never gets old. Each recital is especially meaningful because I know where every student began and how far they’ve come. Watching them share their music with family, friends, and even a few strangers is incredibly rewarding. We’ll have two more weeks of lessons before a short summer break, and lessons will resume in July. I’ll have a couple of openings for teens and adults (beginner through advanced), so now is a great time to reach out if you’re interested. One question I’m often asked is why we continue lessons after the recital. I’ve found it’s so important to sit down with each student while the experience is still fresh. We talk through their performance, celebrate growth, and set clear goals so they head into summer with purpose and direction. If you’ve been thinking about music lessons, I’d love to connect. It would be an honor to guide you (or your student) on your musical journey.
