Girls sing Amazing Grace at church

Number Seven sings Blackbird

The High School Talent Show was very pleasant with many nice numbers. 

Choir Awards Night

Earlier this evening we were so pleased to see the girls being awarded several awards... Especially Number Seven who lettered, and won both student-elected and teacher's choice awards! 

Easter Sunday

Numbers Six and Seven were cantors for the 11 AM Mass--the third Easter Mass our family attended! Number Three arrived from Omaha just in time to pray with us. They did an Easter duet they have been practicing with their voice teacher for a whole year! It turned out so solid and beautiful. I was able to record it during Mass, listen to it here! 

A very-musical Sunday!

The day started with our choir being thanked by Father at mass as we sang for the last time before we resume in September!

Around the middle of the day, the girls had their Spring Voice Recital.

Number Six's piece was in Italian, and so pretty!



For Number Seven's piece, the original-French composition "La Mer", Number Six was invited to play the piano accompaniment for her sister.



Unfortunately, during the last piece of the recital--the girls' beautiful duet--the camera's battery ran out about one-third into it! I was desolate, but will record them again at home and include here asap.

With mom, and not ready yet!

Voice teacher Pamela Baker

At 7 PM, Number Six played in the Walker Studio Spring recital. Her first piece was The Northern Prairies in three short movements--we loved hearing her study this piece at home these past two months. Notice the third movement The Blizzard.

And then she closed the recital performing La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin (Girl with the Flaxen Hair by Debussy and Bagatelle by Alexander Tchbrepnin.

Piano teacher Dr. Mary Walker

To close the musical Sunday we visited at home with friends Nancy and Jennifer and the girls had to so impromptu singing by the piano! 

What's better than singing?

Not sure why it was fuzzy! Old friends!

Spring flowers, good friends!

Duet Audition

Earlier today Numbers Six and Seven auditioned for this year's Brookings Got Talent show. They chose "Till The Stars Fall from the Sky", the song they learned as a gift to Number Two's wedding, after going over things with their voice teacher. I was only able to record the second half. They did very well and we should hear back this week!

Two musical videos

The first one is of Numbers Seven and Six's small coop choir, and the second one of a partial recording of Number Four with the SDSU Statesmen singing Loch Lomond last night.

Performance

Numbers Six and Seven performed at a community show Tuesday night at the SDSU Performing Art Center. Husband and I were very proud of their performance and poise.
