THE  MAKING  OF  A  BUFFET  CLARINET





THEY  CAME  TO  PLAY


Chronicles the Fifth International Piano Competition for Outstanding Amateurs, hosted by The Van Cliburn Foundation.  I just cry the whole way through this for some reason.  I LOVE this!  WATCH!  







BALLERINA
This beautiful film follows five dancers in the Kirov Ballet.





DANCING  ACROSS  BORDERS
This documentary portrays a Cambodian dancer who is discovered as a young boy by Anne Bass during a traditional Khmer performance in his hometown.  Moved by his amazing talent, Bass offers to sponsor him in the US.  After his family agrees, he moves to New York and begins to study ballet.







6TH  GRADE  BEGINNING  BAND
Here are my little darlings in their first concert.  We had an "informance" which demonstrates the learning process.  December, 2010.







NOTE  BY  NOTE 
A documentary about the making of a Steinway piano.  Amazing history, tradition, and music.  Unforgettable interviews and touching stories.  I show segments of this to my piano students.







GRISHKO  SKATING
Here is Grishko the Great scampering out of the house after the first ice storm in 2010.  Ben chases after him and the music matches up perfectly.  I was sure we would be an internet sensation and was packing my bags for The Today Show, but one week later still only 30 views.  Sad face.  :(
