On Saturday, 12 May Ben, Margaret and Stacey gave their Book 2 violin recital. Here are their thoughts from the experience!
Stacey:
Before my recital I practised a lot of times because i was so nervous .Then the next day came , songs kept playing over and over again in my head .At last the day came ,it was my recital ! I feel like my brain is going to blast off ,but when I started playing my heart felt like it was floating up in the air.while i was playing i was sweating all over my whole body i also felt my hands and legs were shivering and shaking . my heart beat went faster and faster ,in my heart i wanted to say i was nerves out loud but i can’t because every body was recording me!
My recital is with Ben and Margaret , we did good job on the first piece which was chorus from judas ,but the bad thing was that my first solo peice is the hardest piece in the whole recital ,that piece is called gavotte from mignon ,i went through this peace with sweat!i was very relaxed after my recital.
Margaret:
I really enjoyed this recital. there were some mistakes that I played But my mistakes were mistakes that is common to make for me. And there were some parts where I think I did really well and I think this is all I will say – and I really fun playing with Ben and Stacey.
