Yes, I am a very proud uncle. My niece Emily plays the violin and is attending the prestigious Eastern Music Festival music school in Greensboro, NC this summer. I was incredibly fortunate to be able to catch one of her orchestra concerts Friday night, July 6th. WOW!! These 14-21 yr old kids are fantastic! After two weeks of study/training, they sounded incredible. My niece, a high skrewl senior this fall, played 10th chair violin Friday night. I couldn't be more proud of her.
Check out the rest of the dates on the calendar for the Eastern Music Festival. If you're anywhere near Greensboro, NC and can catch a concert, you won't be disappointed.
Have a day. :-|
