As often as I have posted about my efforts to get my older daughter to submit to contests and performing groups... She is a composition major finishing her master's degree. Well, she just won a contest and accepted a commission!
She has had a few pieces accepted for performance but this is her first actual commissioned work with upfront money and everything. I couldn't be more proud.

At least 50% of that DNA is yours, and 100% of the talent, no doubt.
Sylvia, her mother, has her Masters in Piano Performance so I cannot take all the credit. The smartest thing I did as a voice major was to marry a piano major.
Let me put it into perspective: The banjos are mine. The Bösendorfer piano is my wife's. 'Nuff said.
Marjorie gets the height from both sides. I stand a solid 6'3" in stocking feet. She (in the orange), like my late father-in-law and two of my brothers is about 6'5".
