" Music does a lot for a lot of people. It's transporting..., it's upllifting, it's encouraging and its strengthening."

-Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul

Last Sunday we had the pleasure of watching our students perform on zoom. It was our second zoom recital in Spring first one was last Spring. I couldn't help feeling proud of our students who showed resilience in riding with the waves of the pandemic -staying with online music lessons and performing live on zoom or submitting videos of their practice and performances. So well done to our performers for finding that connection and motivation to practise and to come up with the best video recordings to be shared by their teacher with our audience.

Well done to our wonderful teachers too for all your effort in coaching your students for this event and your commitment to providing ongoing music lessons and constantly striving to make online lessons as engaging and effective.

Some hi lights here:-

Music has certainly transformed us and helped us beat the lockdown blues. It can lift our spirits and keep us focussed when we perform or play music especially through tough times. It can help reframe our day and experiences and provide us with a space to take a rejuvenating breath. read more here
