VIOLIN ~ Emily's Patient Wait is Drawing Nearer

I love the look on her face. She's truly in a heaven-like state when holding the violin. She's so eager to learn it. Now we just need to settle on a formal instructor and purchase her violin. ;0

Emily and Luke with Jan, a local violin maker.The kids, at one of their lessons with Ms. Sarah.Luke is focused on playing high tempo rhythms. Clearly Joshua Bell has inspired him. Emily on the other hand is most inspired by the slow, angelic-like pieces from Bell's 'Romance of the Violin'. Here she's practicing 'Twinkle, Twinkle," Suzuki's first violin piece. In the violin workshop, looking through the vault of violins waiting for service by Jan. Anna was so kind in showing us around the workshop.

Tuesday we will attend the local children's symphany orchestra parent's meeting. At the end the kids will play the Suzuki songs in order. I'm sure Emily will be inspired and wishing she could play with them.
