On Friday evening, December 20, 2024, twenty-five piano students instructed by Mary Coakley presented performances of their own selected Christmas pieces. The recital was split into two sessions. One was held from 5:15 to 6:15 p.m. and the other was from 6:30 until 7:30 p.m. This recital marks the 6th Christmas recital presented by Mary Coakley and her piano students. Coakley wanted to express her gratitude to the LDS church for making the 5th Ward Building available for the recital. “The quality of sound in that room was amazing! It certainly enhanced the great performances of my students.” She expressed her appreciation for all the effort and time devoted by her students and their parents that went into making this recital such a resounding success. “I consider it a privilege to be able to teach such gifted and committed children. They are all superstars in my eyes.”
