Graduating Seniors Perform in Recitals

Congratulations to WMS students Briony Booker (graduating from Arts & Communication Magnet School) and Mahsheed Massarat (graduating from Southridge HS).

Briony’s senior flute recital was held at the Westside Music School April 20, and included pieces by Schubert, Beethoven, Schumann, and a very special piece entitled “The Curragh of Kildare” which Briony dedicated to her late grandmother.

Mahsheed, piano student at Westside Music School and voice student of Barbara Irvin, presented a joint Senior Voice Recital with fellow Southridge senior Bonnie Dowsett, on May 17 at the First Baptist Church in Beaverton. Mahsheed’s recital included pieces by Mozart, Brahms, Faure, as well as Elton John & Tim Rice, and Stephen Schwartz. Mahsheed and Bonnie also performed the Rossini “Duetto buffo di due gatti” (Cat Duet).

Best wishes to Briony and Mahsheed as they continue in their studies.
