Our student was all smiles today and full of enthusiasm, as always. We started with some solfege and scale work, then practiced large interval jumps, which was exactly the skill we needed in order to finish learning the end of Do You Want to Build a Snowman? His ear for note matching is improving a lot, which came in handy for our final exercise of the session: learning to figure out the melodies to songs by ear. We played Broken, a song he identified last week as being one of his favourites at the moment. He was so happy to play a song of his own choosing, and matched the song’s melody very quickly. Time flies, and it’s hard to believe this session is over so fast, but I hope to continue working with this student and seeing where his musical mind takes him!
