Musician

Watching M in a piano lesson is a thing of beauty.  Mrs. B pushes her hard.  When M is focusing in her lesson her face takes on the expression of eyes wide and jaw relaxed.  It makes me so proud to see her amaze the teacher.  Last week she practiced diatonic 5 note scales.  Then in the lesson Mrs. asked her to do Chromatic ascending, which is hard, then she said eventually she should do descending.  Then M did it!  Mrs. B and I looked at each other like "woah."

Mrs. B runs the lesson so efficiently jumping from theory to technique to technology to real world application and the hour flies by.  M is learning so many great things musically but also for when she has her own piano studio.  I'm so glad she has this amazing ability to put things together in her head and put it into practice.  Mrs. B talks about how M is one of the kids who is going to be able an accompanist for a choir.  I love it.
