Guitar Recital

On Wednesday evening, Karl capped off his third year of guitar lessons with the annual spring recital. Both Karl and I get nervous before performing, so the car ride down wasn’t particularly pleasant for Deborah or Laura. But Karl came through with great performances of “Greensleeves” and “Oh When The Saints Go Marching In.” After the recital with Doug Smith, our teacher. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7104/7276317382_95dd3b27d7_z.jpg Another annual guitar event is the recording session. In the spring of the year, Doug brings in professional videographers and audio engineers to record his students for use in his online teaching curriculum. This is Karl in 2010 playing “Hot Cross Buns.” Look how high the capo is! In 2011, playing “Captain White.” And this year, playing “Minuet from Bach’s Book.”
