Wilton Manors, Fl 33305

Student Attire: Formal recital attire is required - No denim jackets, jeans, shorts, short skirts, clunky shoes, sneakers, jeans, t shirts, long nails, football cleats....etc. No long nails will be permitted as they can actually damage the piano keys in addition to making it very difficult to perform.

Unacceptable: Boat shoes, Dockers, casual brown loafers, white soled shoes,  flip flops, black sneakers, and actually, casual shoes, or sneakers of ANY kind are not appropriate for a recital and will not be permitted on stage. If you question whether something is appropriate, please ask me.

If a student performer is inappropriately attired, I will ask you to take them home to change to more appropriate attire.

This is non-negotiable and is very important. I appreciate your showing of respect for the event and for your understanding and cooperation. Our students have worked so hard to prepare for an event like this and we appreciate showing your support in this regard.

You may invite friends and family.There will be a reception. Please bring a platter of finger foods, fruits/veg, cheese/ crackers or a dessert to share. I will provide the punch and paper goods.

Musically yours,
Mrs. Purchase
