How we do recitals:

Recitals are a special part of the Jacaranda Music Studios experience. We do our recitals a little differently, with a little pizazz. Each recital has a theme. Sometimes we do costumes. Sometimes we all play John Williams. Sometimes we drink hot cocoa. Sometimes we sing together. Classical, jazz, pop, opera, film scores, you name it. We play it all.

We throw recitals three times a year. We encourage all of our students to perform because of their incredible power to motivate and inspire. We find over and over that practicing for a recital can be much more motivating than practicing for your teacher alone. Recitals are also one of the only times when all of our students come together. Younger students get to listen to more seasoned students play and come away with a pocketful of songs they want to play someday. Recitals are also simply a time for family and friends to celebrate and enjoy their little (or not so little) musicians and applaud them on in their musical journey. 

In addition, performing takes our students' musicianship to the next level. Sharing a piece with others is the final stage of maturity for a musician. They've learned, they've practiced, and now they get to express that to an audience. Recitals are their chance to say something to others with their music and to bring their gift into community. We're always so proud of all of our students at the end of every recital and we know you will be too. See you there!
