Breanna's orchestra contest

Breanna went to contest yesterday. She played a solo and played in an ensemble. Her ensemble got gold and will go to state. She played Mozart Concerto #3 in G (a very complicated piece) and got silver. Her violin teacher said it was a high silver. Toward the end, she messed up for a few seconds. We think that is why she wasn't gold. She is relieved to not have to play this piece again since she's been playing it since last summer!

Practicing her solo.

The ensemble: Breanna, Matt, Jenny D, and two other girls I don't know their names.

Close up of Matt and Breanna before they began their piece.

Matt's solo. He got a gold but it was a group II piece so he isn't going to state. He played very well, though.

Tuning up before her solo. Under her elbow is her former private lesson teacher, Lyn. She graduated Breanna to a new teacher this fall. She said Breanna needs someone who can challenge her. She got Breanna started on the Mozart piece and then apologized after we found out she got gold for giving her such a hard piece to go to contest with.

I've been trying to upload the videos of her solo and ensemble but it is not working right now! Any help anyone can give me would be wonderful!
