I enjoy accompanying young instrumentalists and vocalists. Their talent and enthusiasm and my experience make a strong team. Recently I received some delightful news. Two flute students and a violin student I accompanied last spring earned provincial medals for the highest marks in their instrument and grade. I knew we had done well, and I was proud to play a supporting role.
