Ode to Joy

As played by my 4 year old student!

Irish Fiddling at the Market

I Irish Fiddled from 9:00-11:30am on Saturday at the Parker School Farmer's Market. I had students join me for several songs throughout the morning. The green rolling hills of Waimea really reminded me of Ireland. The only thing missing were the specks of white sheep dotting the green hillside!

School and Instrument Break Down

I get asked the same two questions all the time, and I really had no idea as to the answer. Question 1: How many students go to what school? and Question 2: How many students play what instrument?

So today I looked at my studio list and broke it down.

Out of 86 private students:

53 learn piano only

18 learn violin only

9 learn two instruments (guitar/piano; ukulele piano; violin piano)

2 learn guitar only

1 learns ukulele only

1 learns violin only

1 learns cello only

2 learn voice only

And out of 86 private students:

12 are in preschool

12 are homeschooled

12 go to public school

14 go to Parker.School

21 go to H.P.A.

5 go to Hualalai Academy

2 go to Waimea.Country.School

3 go to a charter or waldorf school

6 are adults

And that's the breakdown!
