Day Two Hundred Sixty Nine
The other day The Girl was singing the scales : Do-Re-Mi. I asked her who taught her that and she said her music teacher at school. I then asked if she wanted to learn how to play the scales on the piano. (It actually wasn't a question, as the tone was more of a sit down now and I will teach you.)
So I introduced her to everybody's favorite: The C Scale. As I recall from my younger years, "It's the one with no black keys". For a while I felt like Miyagi Keisuke trying to teach someone using metaphors but that didn't go so well.
Eventually, she did get the hang of it (correct fingering as well) and while preparing dinner I could hear her go from octave to octave. I felt like Suyuan listening to June play the piano.
Then she got all flancy and started going down the scale. I told her that was great but her fingering was incorrect and we'd work on that tomorrow.
