catz Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Excuse my brag, but I don't feel I can brag about this on FB without offending someone. DS11 here auditioned for a piano scholarship last weekend and won. He got $500 towards piano lessons! Thought anyone who was homeschooling and paying for $$$ music lessons could appreciate our joy! :D This was a complete surprise. I got to be in the room for the audition and he had a GREAT day. He's had issues with nerves lately. He won in the division of 10-12 year olds. 2 kids were selected in each division. He gets to play in an honor recital at a fancy venue (what to wear ... what to wear?! Guessing yoga pants and t-shirts won't cut it!?) If anyone is a pianist, he played Allegro Burlesco Op 88 No 3 Kuhlau. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
