Our very first Young Artists Guild (YAG) recital was a resounding success—thank you all for your support!
Despite the long weekend, we had a wonderful turnout. Celicia Thendean captivated the audience with her exceptional performance and beautifully diverse repertoire. Her openness and enthusiasm during the post-recital Q&A added a warm, personal touch that made the event even more special.
Many attendees also shared how much they enjoyed reconnecting with fellow dedicated teacher members during the event.
