Boc a Raton Sisters Celebrated Their 500th Consecutive Prac tice at The Symphonia’s Season Finale

Nine-year-old Julia and seven-year-old Daphne Edgarde of Boca Raton, students at Donna Klein Jewish Academy, started piano lessons three years ago after att e n d i n g T h e S y mphonia’s ‘Meet the Orchestra’ program, which invites families to attend a rehearsal and ‘instrument petting zoo,’ allowing the kids to interact with the musicians and the instruments they play. The experience left an indelible impression on the girls.

On Sunday, April 24, they were invited b a ck s ta g e f o r T h e Symphonia’s Season Finale performance, ‘Poetic Mysteries,’ to meet featured piano soloist Lindsay Garritson and Principal Conductor Alastair Willis and be recognized for their commitment to their craft. The Edgarde sisters shared that they were inspired by a number of classical composers, and Willis challenged them to continue practicing every day, which the girls happily agreed to do. Garritson then wrote personal notes of inspiration to each girl in their prized classical musician autograph book.

“When the girls shared their favorite composition they like to perform (Julia’s favorite is Mozart’s Piano Sonata No. 16 i n C M a j o r K545, and Daphne’s favorite is Chopin’s Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2), we were wildly impressed,” said Willis, of he and Garritson. “To be so committed to something at such a young age was quite inspirational to see. This won’t be the last time we hear from Julia and Daphne, I’m

confident!”

Last year, the girls combined their newfound love of classical music with their love of giving back (they are active in their school’s Philanthropy for Kids in Action program), and created ‘Pennies for Piano,’ a virtual recital for friends and family to help raise funds for The Symphonia and the International Alliance for Women in Music, raising more than $500 for The Symphonia.
