A "G" in pencil

"Music is the poetry of the air." - Richter

Going from the D on the right hand to the G on the left hand was giving her a fit! After about two days, I took a pencil and wrote the letter G above the note because I was constantly going by and hitting the correct note.  The whole senerio made me smile because I was reminded of the scene in the Music Man where Amaryllis was always missing the note in her song during her piano lesson.

I am pleased to say, with very little carpet in this house,  I can now open the windows so that the melody of "Jesus Loves Me" filters out into the air sweetly.

  2. I remember someone (we won't say who) penciled (more like ingraved)in the key name on/in the wood of a new piano. Hmmmm and they are still there....just saying.

    I'm sure she is making sweet melodies.

  4. What sweet notes those must be! And I am sure they will get sweeter and sweeter as time passes. May those notes not fall on deaf ears. [o=
