Piano Camp

Lily had her first class at piano camp yesterday.  This was held at Meredith College, which is a women's college about 15 minutes from our house.  This is also where Lily took swim lessons in the past. Incidentally, she has decided that she wants to go there for college.  We'll see about that.

She was very nervous about going to the camp.  She kept asking if she knew anyone in the class and we kept reassuring her that she would make friends.  She was so nervous that she didn't really eat much breakfast yesterday.  But of course she made friends and had a good time.  She learned about the accidentals yesterday and two songs where she plays them up and then plays them down.

We're hoping that this will spark an interest in the piano.  She needs to learn an instrument sooner or later so she understands how music works.  We figure the sooner the better.  We don't expect her to be a virtuoso or anything, but we know that if she learns the piano it is something that she will appreciate down the road.
