What a great first lesson! There is always so much info to pack in while I have you in class once a month! Thank you for coming!
Our last semester of Let’s Play Music is packed with amazing musical concepts that some kids will get in high school music classes, if they are lucky!!
This is going to be an amazing ride as we make skipping snakes, play with the roots of chords, build triads, compose a song, add to our musical repertoire,
and much, much more.
Because we are moving right along now, my hope is that you will continue to put highest priority on your practice time (including listening to the music,
which teaches so many of our theory concepts this semester). Each week we will be building on concepts and skills practiced the previous week. Of course,
we have been doing this all along in the other LPM semesters. However, if the students get behind this semester, they will most likely feel lost rather
quickly. As a result, they won’t feel happy coming to class because they won’t know the material and won’t have practiced the songs. This will quickly lead
to frustration and unhappy students. We’d like to avoid this from the start, by putting highest priority on practice from the beginning. This will
eliminate much of the distress that could develop because of neglected practice, and continue to get your a high return on your investment.
