PIANO FOR SPECIAL KIDZ
Learning and growing through music
PERFORMANCE
Since 2006, we have had a Spring Recital involving those students who are
comfortable playing in front of an audience. This is a wonderful opportunity for
children to feel the thrill of entertaining an audience and be part of a larger
performance group.
In 2008, we had our recital at 440 Upstairs at Proctor's, right next door to
Proctor's Theatre in Schenectady, NY. It was a very exciting experience! In 2009
2010 and 2011 we had our recital at the William K. Sanford Library in
Loudonville, New York. They were a lot of fun and a great success!
For those children who have difficulty interacting in social situations there is an
alternate, shorter recital. This recital has only six to eight students and their
families and is in a more intimate performance setting.
