Rylee's First Symphony 9/28

Rylee Jo & her Mommy/Daddy date...
the Utah Symphony's Salute to Youth at the Abravanel Hall


This was a neat experience for Rylee Jo and us. It was her special date with Mommy & Daddy. She had worked very hard over the past 6 months practicing the violin, and next week was her first violin recital. We wanted to give her the opportunity to see the youth violinists to perform with the Utah Symphony.

We sat right up close, and it was fun to see Rylee as she watched these violinists. Sitting that close watching those incredibly talented, young, violinists was really neat. Rylee recognized many things, like how fast their fingers moved.
This was Rylee's favorite performer, because she liked her beautiful dress, and she especially loved the last big note she played was so dramatic we could see a big puff of rosin/dust!

It was amazing to watch Rylee play right along with these performers on her "pretend violin" in the air. For the second half, we sat in the very back where all the open seats were, and Rylee danced and twirled around, bowing on her "violin" to the songs.

We are so proud of this little girl. She is naturally musically gifted, and one amazing & special little Angel.
We look forward to seeing what this little sweetheart will achieve in her life!
