It seems like I am always writing about Haley's Irish music "adventures" and rarely her classical. She has many more opportunities to perform her Irish music. Yesterday her classical teacher held her end of year recital. Haley had been hoping to be able to play the Bach Concerto in E Major but her teacher asked her to revisit Meditation from Thais.
They spent the last month going over every note and phrase, every dynamic change, and every subtle nuance of bow control. I didn't know there could possibly be that much to discuss on one piece of music...Ha!
Here are the results of all their hard work...
After playing like that, we drove into the city so she could fiddle for another 4 hours at Pl*ugh and the St*rs. She had so much fun "playing" with her adult friends.

She played this beautifully, with a lot of color variations. We enjoyed listening over our breakfast today. Such a beautiful piece of music. I wish our teacher would teach Chips a piece like this for a change. Our end of year recital is coming up on Friday. I will post on what they played in a few days. Thanks for sharing the video. Glad we found each others blogs! (I still miss NJ).
