I've always loved watching Mrs.Farris's hands when she plays, so this was just mind boggling to me. She had valid points, because I'll even admit to having prejudices. I.e. I absolutely cannot stand listening to rap music. But, take away the curse words, and some of those songs are just really deep poetry with a beat. We SHOULD all be more open to music. I caught myself, while listening to her play, closing my eyes and just imagining what would be happening with the music playing. I love that about music- I love the way that notes, simple sounds at different pitches and speeds, can tell a story. It's so amazing. People are amazing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10723091958179354582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8797251831380804470.post-2180990779865764622014-10-16T08:59:46.302-05:002014-10-16T08:59:46.302-05:00I loved this video!

They love the different sounds and don't think about it. When children are around 14 or so, they do have prejudices against certain music. They might think those songs are so old fashioned. I personally love listening to the piano and I thought all of those songs were great. When I took piano lessons, I wasn't very open to playing Mozart and Bach, but once my teachers forced me to play it, I really enjoyed the songs.

When I grew up my life consisted of " If it is too loud, you're too old." rock and roll, country, and pop. These are my favorite genres of music. I also like others but I gained the love of those from the base of rock or pop. It developed.

I'm not entirely sure I would be willing to put my piano, and myself, that high above ground, hovering over all those people. I would be terrified actually. It's kind of neat how she isn't afraid to play piano to strangers on the street. I for one, would be extremely shy. It's also pretty cool, how she can memorize all the notes to the song! There's so many, it would seem impossible! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
