Piano students of Artstars Studio in Great Falls recently held recitals with an Olympic theme. The young musicians mastered music from all around the world. In addition, each student created a country's flag to display while they were playing music from that country. Selections included 'The Galway Piper" from Ireland, "Cielito Lindo" from Mexico, "Botany Bay" from Australia, and "Greensleeves" from England.
Music by Mozart was also featured in the recitals, since 2016 marks the 260th anniversary of Mozart's birth. Recital attendees enjoyed hearing melodies from Mozart's "Magic Flute," "A Little Night Music," and "Don Giovanni."
The instructor for Artstars Studio is Great Falls resident, Mary Jane Cogan. For information on fall enrollment, call 703-430-0166 or emailartstarsmjc@gmail.com. The studio's website is www.Artstars.biz.
