It was my daughter Angel's first recital.
 Angel is 5 and studies with Dr. Irene Peery-Fox, (who was my teacher from age 11 to 25.)
Teaching your own children is trickier than I ever imagined. Angel loves piano and begs me not to take a day off. Practicing is such a joy with her--after every item she runs through the house being chased by me for "tickles". So, it's a work out also. She performed "Good-bye to Winter" and "Little Playmates."

It was Karly Lenhart's last recital.
Karly will be attending BYU as a Piano Performance Major, studying with Dr. Irene Peery-Fox. I have taught Karly since she was 7, so it was a bitter-sweet moment for me as her teacher. She has blossomed into an incredible pianist who is sought after already as an accompanist, teacher, and even performer (TSO). Her sight reading abilities are fantastic and she is a captivating performer. I can't wait to see what her future holds.
