Musical Evening



I had a wonderful time attending Elizabeth's recital last night. There were kids of all ages there to perform -- from the youngest at 5 to the oldest at least 60 in all stages of learning. The evening was capped by the performace of a family from Paola comprised of Mom, Dad and four daughters ages 11, 9 (twins) & 7. Those girls were remarkable. They played the fiddle, banjo, & mandaline. They could really sing too. Most of their songs 30's bluegrass.


Oh yes, and Elizabeth did a great job of guitar picking with her instructor. She is quite talented.
The performance was held in a local artist's art studio. The atmosphere was quite informal and people could come and go without creating a lot of disruption.
