Andrew and Sam had their spring violin concert on Tuesday night at a local assisted-living facility. It was quite a musical place; when we arrived, there was a karaoke sing-along going on (selections included "New York, New York" and "Swanee"), then the singers all came in to listen to the kids play. The concert ended with the National Anthem, and as you can see in the top picture, Sam and his cute partner got to wave the flag. The studio recently recorded the Anthem, and is sending it to the Mariners and Rainiers to see if they can get a date to play.
Our other violin event was last Thursday, when Andrew played his Book 2 recital. He played for the Vincentians (seniors) group at our parish, for their monthly luncheon. He did a terrific job, and got many encouraging comments from the crowd. The highlights for Andrew were getting to leave school in the middle of the day, and playing Bingo with the Vincentians after he played!
