Music Notation – Old, New and YOURS!

Conducted by composer/pedagogues Alec Toku-Whiting and Kevin Michael Sullivan, this November 20th Workshop was a big success. It was attended by students of colleagues and also by ABarr students Liam A., Allie N., Micah M., Jim G., Sue W., Diane W., David W. Sr., and David W. Jr. We gained a vast amount of knowledge and insight!

Excited to Get New Music!

Naomi Mulder, the newest and youngest addition to our studio, sat down at the piano the evening of her lesson. She was eager to start on her newly-assigned holiday music! Go Naomi, and thanks to Amara, her mother and a fabulous pianist herself, for the great photo!
