Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

Last Violin Performance


Our son has decided to quit the violin, much to my disappointment.  After months of constant persuasion to practice and listening to his complaints, I give up.  This is his last performance, so it's one that I wanted to capture.  He looked so handsome in his tux, and played beautifully!


In this first piece, he played 2nd violin (harmony).  Since he is the most experienced and strongest player, you hear his harmony above the melody.  But, he did play as soft as he knew how.

In this last piece, he played a beginning solo and the main melody (1st violin), so the familiar tune comes out nice and strong.
