What an incredible Christmas Event this 2025, as my students sang together three group songs, each vocalist had a solo, the piano students did duets, trios and quartets and all while we did our first ever YouTube Live.

Last week was amazing with the students preparing for the upcoming Studio Event called An Ornamental Christmas. On Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving, I had a chance to do a piano and vocal group class and everyone had a blast.
