By: Renee Bordner NWE Music Studio Director I like many have been ready to wrap up 2020 for quite some time. 2020 has been a year for the record books for everyone! I am looking forward to a fresh start and new year resolutions for 2021. But first, we have a full weekend of seven holiday recitals and seven awards ceremonies planned! We will watch, listen and celebrate 155 of our students' successes of the year! This will be our first time hosting online recitals, this will be the first time we have had seven recitals in one weekend, and this will be our first time with 155 performers! While I prefer in person events, I am really excited about keeping a tradition alive in a new way! We will have photos up on our social media after, so please take the time to check them all out.
In 2020 our students, instructors and our studio did have many successes! Some successes included students learning to play their first note while some students won music competitions and auditions! My phone and computer were busy with excited parents and teachers sharing the latest news with me. Our instructors also kept my phone and computer busy with news about babies, engagements, graduations and exciting life milestones. We captured photos and videos of many of these and posted them on our social media pages. I have found myself going through these voice messages, texts, emails and social media posts on some of our longer tough pandemic days. We truly did have a successful year in the midst of all that surrounded us. I know that at the end of this year we are all stronger. I do hope that you and your family take a break from the daily busy routine and enjoy time with those who are important to you this holiday season even if it is over a video chat. Thank you for your support of NWE during 2020. We look forward to continuing to work with you and your family in 2021.

By: Renee Bordner NWE Studio Music Director Even though Thanksgiving is later this month, I want to take the time to celebrate and be grateful now. I am thankful everyday for the countless blessings in our Note-worthy Experiences family. 2020 has taught all of us many lessons in life. The one lesson that I have focused on most is finding those silver linings in the midst of the pandemic. I am grateful for the continued support of our students and instructors.
I know that online lessons have not been easy. I know that lessons with masks on our faces and speciality masks on our instruments are tough. I know that none of our instructors have been performing. I know that some of the venues that some of our instructors perform at regularly are simply gone. At the same time, I know that our students are more resilient and able to adapt to changes within nanoseconds. I know that our instructors can create lesson plans for almost any situation imaginable. I know that we are all more technologically savvy. However what strikes me the most is that each and every one of us are demonstrating to each other real life examples of unity and perseverance. These lessons in perseverance are lessons that will be with each of us for the rest of our lives. Thank you for allowing all of us at Note-worthy Experiences to learn these lessons and grow together as a musical community. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday season with your family and friends. We look forward to celebrating the end of 2020 with all of you at our Annual Winter Holiday Recitals. By: Renee Bordner NWE Music Studio Director Hello Note-worthy Experiences Music Studio!
Happy September! Autumn is my absolute favorite time of the year as I love the excitement of the back to school season, college football, and pumpkin spice everything. However, this autumn is presenting itself with some new twists and turns for absolutely everyone. I truly appreciate all of you being incredibly patient as we navigate our fall schedules for in person, online and hybrid lessons. A huge shout out to those of you who have opted for outdoor lessons and have been flexible due to heat advisories and thunderstorms! Our team put together many on line free family fun nights and group workshops for our NWE community this spring and summer. For this fall, we will focus on consistent one-on-one lessons, our outdoor performance, practice club, outdoor band rehearsals and preparing for Winter Holiday Recitals. I will be hosting a free online workshop for parents who want to help their students with consistent practice routines. I appreciate all of the feedback from parents and students that consistent weekly lessons have been helpful to have a somewhat "normal" routine in the midst of this global pandemic. During this pandemic, I have been incredibly impressed by everyone's support of our students. In addition I have been blown away by the support of our instructors, all of whom are also performers who are not performing regularly during this crisis. I have been blessed to bring additional team members to our team, thank you for welcoming them. Please continue to reach out to me with any questions or concerns at any time. I am here for our students and I can only help with a challenge when I am aware. Please continue to send photos of videos of our students and instructors in action. Enjoy the autumn and stay healthy! |
