2nd recital - violin

1st recital at Yamaha USJ
2nd recital at Symphony Aman Suria

It's a good exposure for andrea and I'm very grateful to have Dr. Ng as andrea's violin teacher. It's not about how good the teaching is, it's the environment he created for his student. I really like this idea to have recital every month. 

1st recital, andrea played marry had a little lamb - no hiccups, very well performed but too bad daddy somehow did not know why it was not captured in our camera :( 2nd recital, andrea played twinkle twinkle little star + twinkle variation A. Andrea played half way and stop, her anxious eye keep on looking at me and looking people around me but for variation A was OK, she played the whole song but the bow was flying everywhere. I praised her anyway (for being brave and have done a very good job on stage), because she was crying when she was down from the stage. Later in the car i asked why she stop - issit scared, she said yes. I told her to look at the violin instead next time. Will see how she perform next month at a difference place. At home, daddy asked her again why stop half way, she told daddy she doesn't want mummy to look at her oO. At 1 month to 4 years old, they still cannot comprehend their true feelings. 

This time we did capture the video, however, it was block by one student who is quite big size. The place is actually very small, oh well .... no nice video for 1st & 2nd recital. Andrea enjoy looking at other student playing too. Other student is talented, not only they play violin, they play viola and piano too. We left at 8.15am as benjamin is getting cranky. overall it's a good experience, i get to know other parents as well :")

Need to find new dresses for andrea! She wore the same dress for 1st & 2nd recital :P
