well what kind of music do you like Beverly well i play piano and organ and have since i was a child and i sing in church choir and have done that since i was a child and still sing now oh oh that's great and uh i play cello in high school and college and occasionally play as an adult but i don't have a cello and i rarely ever practice so it's like adult groups that's i teach school adult groups at school or something when they are in dire need of somebody uh-huh uh-huh so i still pick it up occasionally yeah but uh my son is a music major he's uh in performing French horn he was an all state French horn player all through high school and uh-huh so there's a lot of music in our family well that's terrific i think it's wonderful that you got that that you play an instrument that you passed it on to your children i uh um as as a child reluctantly took piano for for uh i guess three years and you know looking back i'm i'm really happy that i had that experience because certainly i i learned some basics about music that i would've been completely ignorant of had i not had those lessons um-hum um i i wish now of course you know in in hindsight that i had uh uh uh kept it up but i didn't but nonetheless i i do have some uh rudimentary knowledge of uh the scales and the keys and the chords and et cetera um-hum do you do anything with music nowadays other than buy it prerecorded no you you buy it and listen to it huh exactly yeah and and uh what i i i am kind of i've got a real nice stereo system that i've invested too much money in and you know all the latest gadgets and but i do enjoy good music um-hum and uh i've got quite a wide uh repertoire i mean i've i've got everything from classical to jazz or rock and roll to blues i mean it's just i i cover the whole gamut and it depends on the mood i'm in uh um-hum and for instance Sunday mornings with coffee and the newspaper i for some reason like to listen to classical music and uh other times it you know just something completely different will strike me i i like almost everything except rap i i do too i don't really care that much for rap the only thing i i've liked uh with rap is is when the kids at school uh will take information and they'll learn it by making a rap out of it and then i think it's useful otherwise i don't have any use for it yeah well it's it's the first time something that has come along that makes me feel that you know i am obviously of another generation this is a there's gap between me and rap music and i guess um-hum um-hum i understand you know that's just i don't relate to it at all but then again i'm that's um-hum it it's definitely a a huge hit with the younger people they seem to like it they do well my eldest son took piano for oh about four years and lost interest but he learned enough that he can still sit down and play and enjoys doing that and has a keyboard uh-huh and then my daughter uh took piano for a while she also played bassoon and then she has taken dance well she took dance from the time she was about five on up through first part of college and she got so involved in dance and that sort of thing that she let the instruments kind of slide behind uh-huh and but yet she still enjoys uh music and still enjoys dance and you know for exercise she wants aerobics to music and that you know that kind of thing yeah yeah well you sound like you've got a very talented family well they do have quite a bit of musical ability which is is nice uh we do enjoy good music and uh like however uh with the kids going through college and we have two in college right now they are the ones that have the stereos we we don't seem to have much stereo one of these days we will yeah uh-huh it yeah yeah really well um uh uh what was i gonna ask i was there was a question that's on the tip of my oh yeah as far as a voice did you ever have any uh uh voice coach either or lessons the the only ones that i ever had were actually through the church where they had uh or a voice teacher uh offer lessons at sort of at a discount you might say for members of the choir who were interested so i did that a couple of times right but as far as as any other training no i just it was uh what i learned through singing in choirs and um my other music piano and the organ and the cello a friend of mine the reason i ask a friend of mine and her sister both took voice for oh i guess three or four years and they sing like angels they have the most they you know um-hum um-hum they're just beautiful and i wonder how much of it is innate talent and how much of that is a a function of of how much they've learned and and retained um-hum well there has to be some talent there there has to be some voice something to work with something to work with right i mean you can only overcome so much but there are tricks to make right
