Saturday night Isaac performed in the Tucson Music Teacher's Association 58th Piano Ensemble "Shall We Dance?". We have been preparing for this since November or December and he did a fabulous job. We've been going to UofA every Saturday for the last month for rehearsals. The practices were closed, but they let Eric into one since he wouldn't be able to make the actual concert. Their conductor was Dr. Kolosick and Eric said he was great with the kids. We're really glad that Isaac was able to have this experience. It has been really neat. The concert was at Centennial Hall. They had 12 grand pianos on stage, with as many as 36 students playing at once on some pieces. There were 24 for Isaac's song. He performed the secondo part for "The Thunderer."
Some may think Isaac is posing here. Really, he is just asking if he can PLEASE climb the tree in his Sunday best. Ha!

Can you find him? He's the fourth one in on the middle row of pianos.
Seventh from the left. He looked so handsome up there!
His friends, Caleb and Amy, came to support him (Natalie, too!). They were so cute. I think they were as proud of Isaac as I was. Next year we'll get to watch all three of them.
Isaac claimed that he wasn't a bit nervous. Just really excited. I'm glad he had such a good time. Great job, kiddo!
