Suzuki Celebration Concert

Over 1200 Suzuki students of all instruments come together in a celebration of Dr. Suzuki's legacy every 5 years.  For this rare event on September 19, 2015 the theme was "Where Love is Deep" and all participants sang and signed the words to this touching song.  There were 8 students from my studio who participated in this concert and as a participating teacher I was assigned to be a "twinkle chaperone".  As big as the LDS Conference Center in SLC is, there are so many students in the gala performance that many of the violins spill into the audience seats!  Here is a picture of the final product of many months worth of preparation:
