Student Recital, 2020
Sunday, January 19, 2020 by Simon Larner | Pianist and Teacher
For this year’s recital my students had the privilege of performing at the magnificent Croston Theatre in Blackburn. Each student was given the opportunity to perform both solo and ensemble pieces on the theatre’s Yamaha S6 grand piano on a tremendous proscenium arch stage. During the awards ceremony, three students received the High Achievement Award for passing their exam with a result of 93% and the prizes for Technique, Musicianship, Endeavour and Jazz were awarded to students who showed significant promise in these areas. Students who had taken an exam during 2019 were also presented with their certificates and so were those who had successfully taken part in music festivals. The event had an incredible atmosphere of celebration about it. I don’t know who was prouder: parents, families or me!
