The duo was joined by younger siblings Aidan and Paris for a performance at Hawthorn Park retirement community. They were met with enthusiastic applause and lots of smiles.

Music Competition

I won’t get into my whole Alfie Kohn/Suzuki/non-competetive thing. I’m not actually a big fan of competition. It makes me nervous and then I don’t have as much fun just watching the kids. It doesn’t matter whether it’s spelling, Taekwon-do, or music – competitions are not fun to watch. What has been fun about this [...]
