It was the music teacher's concert this afternoon. Laura was playing her clarinet while about 10 other children, 4 from her school, were doing piano pieces.
The concert was held in a church hall in Warrington. Some of the children had only been learning music a short time so their pieces were very simple but one or two played more advanced pieces.
Each child did 2 tunes to start with then another two later in the programme. Laura's first two were "Scarborough Fair" and "Puff the Magic Dragon". She played beautifully, every note perfect, and finished each one with a big smile. Her second set, "Never Dance With an Elephant" and "Ballad For Mr Blue" was just as good. She was the only one playing the clarinet and it was gratifying that she played so well.
Afterwards there were refreshments, tea, coffee and cakes, so it rounded off a very nice afternoon. I went home very full of strawberry scones and very, very proud.
