Piano recitals provide a tangible goal to work towards. In having a set date and a pre-planned performance selection, your child learns how to manage their practice time and what it feels like to polish and perfect a piece of music.

Guitar recitals provide an opportunity to feel successful. Learning the guitar requires many, many hours of solo practice. Performing gives your child the recognition they deserve for their hard-work.

Recitals provide an opportunity for you to show your child that you value their involvement in music. Setting aside time in your busy life to attend a recital supports your children and their peers and shows your child that your family values music.

Recitals provide an opportunity for your children (and you!) to reflect upon where they’ve “come from” when watching beginning students.  watching younger students perform reminds your children of the gains they have made and motivates them to continue to progress.
