I love hearing from students who have played my pieces! This is the 2nd group of pictures I have received from a student who learned my Twister piece for his recital last year. I had the privilege to hear this student play the piece for me for a state music test and he was magnificent! It was so exciting to hear a performance from a student who was passionate about the piece, tornadoes, and playing the piano. I hope he keeps sending me pictures and perhaps soon I’ll have another piece to share with him at his level, though I’m sure he has advanced significantly by now! Here is the picture he sent me last year.
It is such a privilege to live in 2010 where email and the internet makes connecting with a composer very easy. I hope all students take the time to connect with the composer of a piece that they love. I know that composers are thrilled to be contacted about their pieces.
What a honor it is to have your piece loved by a student. Thanks for sending this!
