Lance had a recital here on Sat. There were about 25 kids on the program from all over the twin cities, many of them played solos. Lance played in a quartet that they started in the beginning of the year, he plays second violin. These kids are great because they do everything on their own. The teacher began the group because these 4 were a little beyond what the other kids in class were doing. She basically gave them some music to play and put them out in the hallway to practice together. It started with a song at the school concert, then they were asked to play at the potential students' open house events. They were then asked to participate at this recital. They got together 3 times over break and practiced the songs together. A parent was there, but they did the work of getting the songs together. They played 3 songs at the recital and they were great. (Would I be too much of a mom if I said they were the best?) 
A strange instrument a teacher played. (again sorry about the lighting)
Here they are performing, sorry the big windows behind them was bad for my light, plus I cut off the cellist.
Waiting for their turn.
