​

Q. What if I have siblings performing?

A. We make sure siblings are performing at the same time.

​

​

Q. How long is the recital?

A. The recital for YOUR student(s) will only be about an hour.  We have multiple hour-long time slots going Saturday and Sunday.  In total over 300 students are expected to perform.  But don't worry, there will only be about 15 or 20 students in each time slot!

​​

​

Q. What about parking?

A. There is ample parking in the back parking lot (the same place we park for the music lessons) and it's easy to walk over.

​

​

Q. What should we bring at recital time?  (IMPORTANT)

A. Students should bring their music books/sheet music.  If a student needs their sheet music and doesn't bring it with them, they may have to go home and get it in order to perform.  If they play guitar, violin or another portable instrument, they will also need to bring their instrument.   Don't worry, piano players and drummers won't need to hire any movers to help bring their instruments!  We will have the piano and drums setup and ready to go.

​

​

Q. What time should I arrive?

A. We recommend arriving about 15 to 20 minutes before the recital time.  Due to unforeseen circumstances some recital times may start later than planned, but we do our absolute best to prevent that and to start each recital time promptly at the time listed.

​

​

Q. How should students dress?

A. Since the event is outside we want to make sure everyone dresses comfortably for the weather.  Having said that, most students to dress up a bit for the recital.  Also, some students might have a costume in mind that fits their song, for example a singer might dress like a pop-star or someone might dress like a character from the song they are performing.​​

​

​

Q. Is there a charge to attend?

A. This recital is free of charge, but the student must be enrolled at Pearland School of Music for the month of the recital.

​​

​

Q. How many guests can we bring?

A. We should have plenty of seats, however, as a rule of thumb if you plan to have more than 6 in attendance just give us a heads up by email or phone call just so we can be sure to accommodate your group.  But again, it shouldn't be a problem, and we want students to have all the support they would like!

​

​

Q. What if we can't make the recital?

A. We have recitals roughly every 6 months, so the next one will be right around the corner!

 

​

Q. Is my student ready to perform?

A. Each student is unique and may be ready to perform at different stages in their education.  The best way to be sure is just to chat with their teacher for a few minutes at the beginning or the near the end of their lesson time.  They can guide you on what might work best!   If you have further questions about this, please also don't hesitate to contact us at the front desk!

​

​

Q. Are students required to perform?

A. No, we don't force any students to perform.  Experience has shown that some students prefer to enjoy music in smaller settings, and for them, being forced to perform at a recital can lead to them to stop their music education altogether, which is sad!  We have a number of adult students who start up lessons later in life.  They took lessons as a child but stopped while still young.  Unfortunately, a very common reason they quit as a child is that they were forced to play at recitals.  We don't want that to be our students!

 

Having said that, we do like to at least encourage our students to give it a try.  Sometimes students will just need to attend a few recitals first as an audience member and see other kids performing.  Later they may want to participate themselves.  So, recitals are 100% optional, and we have them often, so if this one doesn't work out, they might give the next one a try!
