Both children and pets got time with Santa at Artisan Square last weekend. One of Santa’s elves, Tyler Matzen (above) was also at the Square playing tunes including the March and Dance of the Reed Flutes from the Nutcracker, Let it Snow, Deck the Halls, Snowfalling, Silent Night, a jazz version of Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, Rudolph, Up on the Housetop, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Dream Catcher and Beethoven’s Romanza.
Under the guidance of piano teacher extraordinaire Elaine Taylor, Tyler is working on his grade four piano.
He loves to perform, and you can catch him play (elf suit and all) again this weekend:
Saturday at the General Store between 2-4 p.m.
Sunday at the Little Red Church 3-5 p.m. Solstice Yuletide Celebration
Tuesday December 23 at the Ruddy 11:30-1 p.m.
