Since we the first day we opened our doors, we knew how important it was to introduce our students to not only playing an instrument, but to the art of performing on a stage,for an audience. Our students have always been given opportunities to perform on many different levels throughout the year. Performing is such a valubale tool. In addition to inspring a student to practice, it also is a great way to teach a child the importance of discipline and professionalism when getting up in front of a group. Througout his or her school career and then later as a working adult, they will be able to pull from the skills that they gained from getting up on a stage to play a simple version of Twinkle Twinkle on the pianl
Adults who study at Risko are as excited to be able to participate in these wonderful performance opportunties that we will be holding throughout the year.
As we get ready to move the Mike Risko Music School into our new space, we will be introducing students to our brand new performance area where we will providefrequent opportunities to perform. In addition we will be offering coffee house style open mics. Students and their parents will be able to enjoy a cappucino or iced tea from our snack bar while watching performances.
Although performing is an important part of playing an instrument, not all students wish to perform and although we encourage it and are a performance based school, we support the student who just wishes to learn to play an instrument for his or her own enjoyment.
