Tonight Moses (my son....well that's not his real name but it's a long story) had a private piano recital. He did fabulously well. I felt sorry for the friends who didn't make it; we had 7 total strangers come because they had heard him at the general student recital and had wanted to hear him again. That was gratifying! He played 7 songs, from Georgia on My Mind to Moonlight Sonata, for a 30 minute recital. His teacher commented that a junior college recital for piano majors lasts 30 minutes... Pretty good for my 15 year old!
I know it's not a great photo, but if I'd been trying to arrange a great shot, I'd have made him nervous. :-)

That is wonderful. I am glad he had a successful night.
What an accomplishment! I'm glad to see he is willing to share his talent. (And he looks like he's having fun!)
Great capture, you appropriately proud momma you!
Karen (http://karenkool.blogspot.com/) would be so impressed. I know I am. I played the trombone when I was his age. God, that's embarrassing.
I like the compostition of the photo. The "over the top" look. I hope you can get the video onto youtube. I love piano music. Congrats to you and "Moses."
That's great -- and it really says a lot about his talent that those 7 folks who had heard him earlier came back for more! Please do let us know if something goes up on YouTube!
Doesn't he look handsome! I would love to hear hhim play. Kudos to all of you.
