I love working on hymn festival pieces! My favorite part is some of them get stuck in my head at the time when I need the words the most. 💕 Here’s a studio sneak peek. “I am redeemed, You set me free.” 🎶🎶

So excited! My studio had 16 piano students participate in the LMTA District Piano Rally Competition. 3 students received Outstanding Achievement trophies, 10 placed in the performance division, and all received 90 or above ratings! Piano Rally is a lot of work! Students must perform 3 pieces by memory, sight-read two pieces they have never seen until the day of the rally, a written theory test, and all their scales by memory. Congratulations, students!!🎉

This past weekend was my studio’s last piano competition for the year. Audrey and Hugh (9th graders) participated in the Louisiana State Baptist Hymn Festival and gave wonderful performances which I will share later this week. Both students received Superior ratings, and Hugh won the 9th grade category for the festival. On a personal note, it was special for me to watch them on Saturday. I have had both students since they were very young. I have seen them grow into the musicians they are today. I have also seen them in the hard places over the years and I’m so incredibly proud of their perseverance through those places! Congratulations, Audrey and Hugh!
