Last month, TNR Cafe in Arlington transformed into a lively stage for our young musicians, hosting an unforgettable Open Mic event. Ten talented performers performed for the restaurant’s dinner customers, each showcasing their unique musical flair. Amidst the clinking of dishes and soft conversations, the air was charged with excitement and pride with each student who got to experience performing in a public but casual venue style environment.
First, we extend our heartfelt thanks to Teacher Sheida for hosting the event and making sure each student felt confident and comfortable. By implementing a low stress performance experience, teachers like her empower students to step into the spotlight again and again! Next, we’d like to thank TNR Cafe, for collaborating with us and providing the perfect setting along with serving delicious Chinese food. They made us feel very welcome and we hope to host again! And last, thank you to the estimated 35 family and friends who filled the venue to support our performers! Your support and enthusiasm fuel our commitment to nurturing the next generation of musicians.

Piano & More is thrilled to host our upcoming field trip to the Kennedy Center this month, celebrating Duke Ellington with the National Symphony Orchestra. Duke Ellington, a jazz pioneer, reshaped music with his innovative compositions, blending jazz, classical, and popular music seamlessly. His influence transcended genres, shaping the landscape of American music. The reputable Kennedy Center located in Washington DC provides the perfect venue, amplifying the significance of the event.
Ellington's legacy extends beyond his musical contributions as he was a trailblazer for racial equality in the music industry, championing diversity and inclusion. Through his music, he challenged societal norms, leaving an indelible mark on history. Led by Teacher Abby, this student field trip is now fully booked! Our students will witness Ellington's genius firsthand, experiencing a concert specifically designed for young audiences and performed by the prestigious National Symphony Orchestra.

Grab your sheet music and appetites because something exciting is about to go down at TNR Cafe. Picture this: real piano tunes, kids showcasing their musical flair, and plates piled high with scrumptious goodness – it's Open Mic Night! Why is this so important, you ask? Well, for starters, performing in a relaxed environment with the most supportive audience is the ultimate confidence booster for a musician. We're talking about our mini-musicians strutting to a piano, conquering stage fright like it's their arch-nemesis. Watch your kids transform into musical rock stars right before your eyes. And let's not forget the inspiration that can ignite! Your kids will be inspired when they see other kids their age perform. It may even spark some interest in a new genre or song, hence setting a new dream/goal. Could it inspire more practice? We've seen it happen before! But it's not just about the music – it's a crash course in people skills too. Navigating the audience, interacting with applause, and basking in shared moments of musical magic – these kids are not just playing notes but building connections. Who knew performance could be a crash course in social dynamics? Move over, social studies! Now, a big shoutout to TNR Cafe – our host with the most! Thank you for turning your spot into a haven for our little maestros. A real piano, some mouthwatering dinner options, and a cozy atmosphere – you're turning this night into a musical feast for both ears and taste buds. We can't wait to dig into the delicious food, tap our feet to the beat, and create some fantastic memories together. |
