Bach To Music

Congratulations to my students from yesterday ORMTA Etobicoke-Mississauga Branch Competitions, winning with 3 First Places, 4 Seconds & 3 Thirds, adjudicated by Dr. Amelia Yates. I was sad with 2 young students who did not place and had little drops of tears ❤️. But the key is to never give up and keep trying right everyone!? Yesterday also ended nicely as I got home to a cooked meal by my personal chef son Lucas and set up/clean by my daughter Elisa, for my 49th Birthday 😊 Thank you Elisa & Lucas for the special treat❤️

Student Matthew, level 10, definitely had lots of helpful guidance from Dr. Brett Kingsbury yesterday, at the first in person event Piano Masterclass again, since COVID pandemic started. I am super proud of Matthew, who will represent our Etobicoke-Mississauga branch to compete on June 4/22, at the ORMTA Provincial competitions.
