Elisabeth has now finished up her final year of high school and she’s performing in her final voice and violin recitals while she gets ready to transition to college.
This summer we will be coming back to the States for our scheduled home assignment and in August just three of us will return to Slovakia. Elisabeth will remain in the States to start her college career and study voice performance at Wheaton College. I guess that makes these the last recordings of recital performances that I’ll be posting as a family update.
In the first video Elisabeth plays her final recital piece (Adagio by Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály) for her violin teacher Beata Bieliková and in the next she sings Giacomo Puccini’s O mio babbino caro, which is an Aria from his opera Gianni Schicchi.

Wow, that was so beautiful and moving! It brought tears to my eyes thinking of all the years of hard work and growth in musicianship and personhood. Thanks for sharing your gifts with the world, Elisabeth. You are an amazing young woman! We can’t wait to see you in August before you head off to Wheaton.
Helmut says
Congratulations to Elisabeth and a thank you for the wonderful video. All the best to you and your family.
