Performance

1. Students must practice daily to become excellent performers and to get the most benefit out of their lessons.
2. Students will be given a one-month probation period if they are not practicing regularly and making progress, and Andrew will determine at the end of the month whether they will continue.
3. Students, who can make a good sound with their bow are required to perform at studio recitals. Performing in front of an audience is a key part of playing an instrument and being a musician.
4. A studio recital will be scheduled near the beginning of each semester, roughly in the months of January, June and September.
5. It is important to make these performances a priority since they will only happen three times a year.
6. Additional performances, such as home concerts and recordings are encouraged and can be scheduled with Andrew
