      ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --

  YOU ARE INVITED: (along with the whole family and friends)    

  Everyone is invited to stay for both Act #1 and Act #1 of the playing parties — in fact I want you to be there for both acts. 

      Having two acts (or two separate shows) means that if you really cannot stay for two hours of music, there is a graceful way to skip half the show. 

  Please plan to stay for the entire hour that you sign up for unless you have cleared it with me in advance. Nothing is worse than being the last performer and all the people you watched play before you are no longer are in the audience.

      ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --

  WHAT TO PLAY FOR THE SHOW:

  If we have not already talked about it in your class, please pick two recent pieces that you play very well. Practice them extra and be prepared to perform them at your next class/lesson.

      
  • Double check that I have your name spelled correctly, and if you already told me in class what you are playing, be sure I have the correct pieces listed. Take a look at this view-only Google spreadsheet.    
            
    • If we have a class/lesson before June 2, we'll add or correct your information then.
    •       
    • If we do NOT have a class/lesson before June 2, please email me with corrections.

  WHAT TO WEAR AND BRING:

  WHAT TO WEAR: Dress up — it’s a celebration!

  WHAT TO BRING: A little something yummy to share — but please don’t bring Oreos. And bring a serving utensil if you need one. Definitely bring friends and family! Oh....bring your music with your pieces bookmarked.

  People have asked for more guidance about what to bring. A few ideas: plate of cheese and crackers; bowl of strawberries; veggies and dip; chips and guacamole; pita bread and hummus; pre-sliced fruit bowl. Hope this helps....

  WHAT HARMONY ROAD PROVIDES: Plastic utensils, paper plates, napkins, plain and sparkling waters and the TRADITIONAL OREO BUFFET.

      ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --

  VOLUNTEERS NEEDED:

  VOLUNTEERS: Four parking lot volunteers are needed to help make the best use of the parking lot and to be sure people know where to park if the lot gets full. We’ll be sure your student is not performing while you are on parking lot duty. I need two from 2:45-3:15 and two from 3:45-4:15. Teenagers make great volunteers — even if they are not music students. Please email me directly if you can volunteer (info@HarmonyRoad.us)

      ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --

      Thanks and get ready to party!

  Summer session sign ups will start next week for private lessons, buddy lessons, classes and camps.
