February Notes

NEW MUSIC AND OLD STANDARDS

We have been trying some great new music in the studio! The theme song from the Hobbit movie was a hit in January. We also have a new version of Chariots of Fire that is awesome.  The theme song to the Legend of Zelda has been very fun also. One student even decided to get a book of songs from the video game after playing the theme song.  Several of my students have chosen a huge book of classic rock as their fun book, so we have been doing everything from Imagine to Bohemian Rhapsody.

It is also exciting to see the students playing some tried and true sheet songs, such as Spirit of the Stallion, Jazzy Gypsy,  and Allegro (the first movement of a classical piece). Several students have been playing the Spinning Song (another classical piece) and we have been learning the Entertainer, Linus and Lucy, Eye of the Tiger and Lean on Me. Some students are doing beautiful classical sheet songs by Beethoven and Kabalevsky. Such fun! We are having a great time!  We are filling up those Favorites Binders!
