The Piano Recital - In Triplicate

Each Spring, the Heiselt children burst forth and play the songs they have been working on with their piano teacher, Ms. Carolyn Rogers for months! It usually coincides at the exact same time when Eric and I think we cannot hear a particular song one more time!

This year the recital was extra special as Shae, Bryton, and Emoree played. Bryton was up first as we thought he had a baseball game (it ended up getting rained out). He played so quickly I didn't even get a chance for a photo (to which he is not very sad -- see face on the boy in the photo with the girls). He did a great job and looked very daper in his suit!

Shae played "Camptown Races" and was up and down so fast it was like a whirlwind. I love how her feet dangle and don't reach the floor! Emoree played "Harry in Winter" from Harry Potter and she did a wonderful job!
The three pianists! At our traditional piano photo. I just love it!
Oh, and not to leave Isaac out. His job was to stay quiet (which he did somewhat well actually) and to keep the church's hymn books in order!

I did manage to get a bit of Emoree's song on video. Eric said listening to Emoree play makes him feel like the father in a Jane Austen novel. He fancies himself sitting around listening to his daughter play the piano forte. Enjoy!
