Tickling the Ivories

Ashley’s headed down to Zanesville the next couple of days for the Buckeye Christian School Association’s annual competition at Zanesville Christian School. We have a “Christian school at home” here, but our neighbors to the north, Mentor Christian School, only had one pianist, and so asked for Ashley’s help.

Ash will be accompanying five students of MCS for eight performances:

• Solo: “Ah! mio cor” [mp3] “Ah! mio cor” [YouTube] (”Ah; poor heart”)
• Solo: “Bel Piacere” [mp3] (”Tis great pleasure)
• Solo: “Jesus, I am Resting”
• Solo: “Nel cor piu non mi sento” [YouTube] (”Why feels my heart so dormant”)
• Solo: “Standchen” [YouTube]
• Duet: “Sound the Trumpet” [YouTube]
• Duet: “Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah”
• Trio: “With a Voice of Singing”

Note: the links I provided are obviously not the actual performances! I included them to give you an idea what they sound like.

If any of these win first place, they’ll go to nationals at Bob Jones University the first week in April. She’s hoping for that!
