Holiday Notes

Chad and Cello Santa

The start of holiday season coincides with the end of the first school trimester in Saint Lucian schools.  Students have completed exams and are eager to enjoy a much needed break.  Not at the Saint Lucia School of Music. There the music never stops.  Young musicians are prepared to perform the  end of term recitals and Christmas concerts right up to, and including, Christmas Day.

Homemade Awards

Cupcake Wreath

In the SLSM Strings Dept, performance classes allow young people to practice the art of performing in the classroom.  No uncomfortable clothes, forbidding stage or distant audience.  The Strings Family comes together to welcome the newest members of the department and celebrate the old.

The ad hoc reception includes homemade "Sour" Orange Juice and a Christmas wreath composed of chocolate and vanilla cupcakes under a crown of garish, green fondant.  Small prizes for everyone who performs and that cozy festive feeling for everyone in the room.
