After several years of asking, finally she plays. Natalie began her piano career this last summer and has quite a talent. She brought her Christmas piece home back in September in preparation for this Christmas recital. She had it down (and memorized) in two weeks! She has quite an ear for music. Since she was 4 years old, Natalie can hear a song and figure it out on the piano on her own (ok, mostly just Beethoven's 9th)...and it sounds good. In fact after she memorized her Christmas song, she hardly looked at her music again....which we are working on. She didn't even want to take her music with her to the recital 'just in case.' She did a fabulous job! A natural.
We are so grateful for her teacher, Samantha. She is an amazing pianist/teacher and a wonderful example. Can you believe she is only 17!? Natalie adores her to pieces!
Our little pianist playing "What Child is This"--
Congratualtions, Nat! You worked so hard and did such a fabulous job! Keep practicing! We love you!
