Tchaikovsky's "March"
I played Tchaikovsky's "March" as a duet at my Winter Recital in January. This piece, from the "Nutcracker", is fun to play. It is lively and happy. I enjoy playing in recitals. I try hard to focus well.

Contra Dance Music-"Kitchen Girl"
"Kitchen Girl" is one of my favorite contra dance tunes. It is upbeat and exciting. The rhythm is steady and lively. I love to play this with my band. When we play in gigs, the energy flows back and forth between our band and the dancers. This makes me feel happy.

Song Without Words
I like the title of this piece. Listening to and playing the piano can communicate so much. The video link below is dedicated to two very special people: Caroline, my first music teacher beginning when I was 2 years old, and Bonnie, my current piano teacher. Thank you for helping me "sing"...."without words".

Springtime
I learned this piece a year ago. It is one of my favorite melodies. It helps me feel calm and peaceful. It reminds me of being outside in the early morning when I hear robins and feel a gentle wind.

Mozart music
I am learning my first Mozart piece on the piano. It is going well. It is in AABB form. I just finish studying about Mozart in my music class. Last weekend , I went to Boston to hear the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Symphony Hall. I heard Alfred Bendel play Mozart's piano concerto No. 20. It made me feel happy.
