Mikaeel's Summer Piano Recital


We had a busy Saturday: Karate in the morning and then Piano recital in the evening. We arrived early at the Steinert Hall, Boston, where the recital takes place. 5:30 pm the kids started their warm-up rounds. Mikaeel was flawless during his practice round except for almost tripping over the foot stool. His recital included:

  1. Musette - Anonymous
  2. Allegro - S. Suzuki
  3. Christmas-Day Secrets - T. Dutton
  4. Au Clair de la Lune - J. B. Lully
Mikaeel was treated to Tapas at Tapeos on Newbury Street. He insisted on Armani Cafe or Top of the Hub, but we settled for Tapeos.

Today, we also recorded Emaan's first private recital. She improvised Twinkle Twinkle, Baba Black Sheep and ABCD-EFG. One small step for Emaan, one Giant Leap for Mum & Dad's expectations.
