The Piano in the White House Harry S. Truman One youngster who never needed to be forced to practice his piano lessons was Harry Truman. He used to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to practice for two hours. When he became a man, music remained his first passion after politics, and he often said that if he had been a good pianist he never would have become President. "I missed being a musician," he said, "and the real and only reason I missed being one is because I wasn't good enough." (from https://www.trumanlibrary.org/kids/piano.htm) Nixon could play five musical instruments. Nixon’s mother insisted he practice on the family’s upright piano every afternoon, and in the seventh grade he was sent 200 miles away to take lessons with his aunt, who had studied at the Indianapolis Conservatory of Music. Although he never learned to read music, Nixon could also play the saxophone, clarinet, accordion and violin. His musical talents turned out to be political assets: Nixon’s 1963 appearance on “The Jack Paar Program,” during which he played a tune he wrote, helped rehabilitate his image after losing the California gubernatorial election the prior year. As president, he occasionally tickled the ivories, playing “Happy Birthday” for Duke Ellington at the White House and “My Wild Irish Rose” in honor of his wife at the Grand Ole Opry. (from https://www.history.com/news/10-things-you-may-not-know-about-richard-nixon) Malia and Sasha Obama Sasha — called "Sassy" by her mom — is the family's cutup. She takes piano lessons and plays basketball (her dad is one of the coaches). In the past four years, she's gone from being a bubbly 7-year-old at her mother's side to a preteen who can wear her older sister's elegant hand-me-downs. Malia, at 14, is already nearly as tall as her 5-foot-11 mother. An avid reader, she plays piano and the flute, studies ballet and favors soccer. She is fast becoming an elegant, model-like young woman whose taste in clothes now sparks commentary from fashionistas.

Recitals   Sharing Recitals come around two or three times each year. I always look forward to recital preparation because students really focus on getting their pieces ready to share with others. I enjoy the practicing and the details of making pieces beautiful and the progress I see in my students. I also enjoy recitals because of the opportunity to share. Not everyone can play the piano, but many people enjoy listening. For this reason, I like to do my recitals at retirement homes or nursing homes. The residents really enjoy seeing the children (or adults who perform) and I think it brings joy to their lives. Music should be shared! Some students arrive early or stay a little later after the recital to talk with residents. I know that it just delights the grandmas and grandpas to greet the children and congratulate them on their performances. Sometimes they will share their experiences with music. One lady used to sing a little Christmas song for us as she recalled her early choir years. Choosing pieces Of course, recitals are a big deal in the life of music students. They take preparation. I usually like to choose music with beginners and intermediate students several months before the recital. Advanced students often require more time for their preparation. Choosing pieces usually means that I will give students 2-3 options. I want them to have a say in what they will be spending a lot of time on and I want them to be excited about the choices. So, I'll play the pieces (or excerpts from the pieces) for them and we choose together. Since they usually play two pieces, I look for contrast, for the requirements of the event coming up, something that will challenge them but still be within their ability to master by the deadline. With two to three recitals a year, they get a lot of variety in their music. We prepare contemporary music, baroque music, classical or romantic music, and sometimes thematic music (colors, world geography, music from various decades, sonatinas/sonatas etc.). Preparing recital pieces When pieces are chosen with plenty of time to prepare, we can work on small sections each week. I've found that when students follow these dates, their pieces are ready for the recital and they play confidently and well. When they are prepared, they feel much less anxiety about performing. The performance practices before the recital help them know what areas need extra attention and they can attend to those before the big day. I usually set target dates for the student similar to these: 3-4 months before recital: Choose repertoire for recital (more advanced students require more time depending on the length and difficulty of the piece) 2 months before recital: Play entire piece with ease 1 month before recital: Memory Deadline 1-2 weeks before the recital: Perform the piece 10x by memory before the recital for friends Performance date Memories Performers remember the pieces they prepare for recitals best. They remember their recital experiences----all aspects including the good and the bad. I'll never forget a recital when I was a teenager where I totally forget how to end the piece. I think I repeated a section a couple of times all the while wondering how in the world I was going to finish the performance. Somehow, it happened. I survived. Sometimes those things happen. Recently a couple of students moved to another city. They will be continuing their studies with another teacher. Because I keep (and treasure) my recital programs, I was able to give the new teacher a list of all the repertoire they had prepared over the years. I think it will be invaluable to the new teacher to see what they have done. It was very fun for me to reminisce about the students and the pieces we had worked so hard on. I always invite my adult students to perform in the recitals. Some do, some don't. Either way is fine, I just want to give them the opportunity if they wish. Sometimes, I'll invite my adult students to prepare pieces to share just among themselves (and not for any guests). This gives them a goal and a purpose for really polishing a piece and then an opportunity to share it in a friendly (and sympathetic) environment. Every once in a while, I jump in and prepare a piece for a recital as well. I enjoy doing that a lot. And I hope that it sets a good example to my students of life-long learning and a desire to share beautiful music. https://www.rjohnsonpiano.com/blog/2018/7/20/welcome monthly 0.5 2018-07-31
