Happy Halloween!
We had a new student join us this week, Will, who is learning Piano Suite. As well, Conn was also able to join us for those who did not know him.
Way to go this week! We reviewed parts of level 2 and moved onto level 3 this week in which we got to practice rhythms. You can practice clapping some of the sayings at home.
You can either play the rhythms on middle "C" on the piano, or clap them.
"Ti-gers ne-ver make good pets"
"My Pa-rot talks a- lot"
"Swim Swim li-ttle fish"
"Rab-bits like to eat car-rots"
There was also a new game this week- "The Bongo game"
We heard two pieces composed by Beethoven this week: Fur Elise and his 5th symphony. Fur Elise is very melodic and easy to listen to, while we described his 5th symphony to be scary music.
Will, you were amazing in your first lesson. I was very impressed with your dedication. I can already tell you will be great on the piano. I started you off with some basic introductions to the piano: posture, hand position ect. and then you went on to learn 2 songs: Topic 05 page 03 Exercise 01 " Frere Jacques" "When the Saints" You then preceded to note values which we will finish up next week.
Have a great weekend.
