Fall Studio Kickoff

This Fall Studio Kickoff we shared music, practice prop projects, learned more about the Piano Olympic program for this year, learned what was new in the studio and had a little fun with an app called VidRhythm!






PRACTICE PROP PROJECTS!
All the projects represent either how much time was devoted into learning pieces, practice goals accomplished etc... This year I thought it would be fun for students to vote on their most favorite creative project. So each project will get a number below.

#1- 'T' made a project with lego's. 
He also played a piece on the piano that he learned over the summer.
