Dennis Alexander Piano Competition!

Yesterday, Dylan played in his second Dennis Alexander piano competition.  I am so proud of this guy and all the hard work and time he put into this.  It is not easy competing on the piano and some of these kids that he competes against seem to be professionals already.  He played both pieces (Dennis Alexander's Gypsy Fire and Chopin's Mazurka Op 67, no 2) beautifully, but lost the last couple of notes of Chopin.  Funny, because he had never once struggled with the ending.  He was disappointed that he had put so much time into this piece and it did not go smoothly, but he is feeling much better now.
 
Here are some before photos.

This is the best group shot I could get.
