We had our first practice for this year at our house with a pot luck. Now I have told you before that our choir is tops at bringing really delicious goodies. They did not disappoint. That is a bit of a problem as we then have our practice afterwards. Yikes.
We have 3 new members who were good sports and are going to be great additions to our choir. Suffice it to say that we weren't quite up to the level of this video tonight (but close tee, hee!!)
The choir in this video is adding rock songs on top of a lovely rendition by the orchestra of Pachelbel's Canon. How? Well, Pachelbel's Canon is written in the pentatonic as are the rock songs they use.
Amaze your friends by playing the piano with both hands and never having a nasty clashing sound when you play only the BLACK keys. Those represent the pentatonic or 5 note scale that leaves out the two half tone steps of fah and ti. Listen and see what I mean. I think we have hatched an idea for more partner songs. Enjoy!!
P.S. Please note that the poem correctly titled "The Dash" used in last week's blog was written by Linda Ellis. The internet is a great place but sometimes the information you find is not quite correct. Thanks Anne.
