why don't you tell me about your choir oh okay well we uh are a group of uh musicians that just kind of have you know formed out of a desire to sing and many of the people in the group are very professional in the sense that they or just real talented i should say lot of them are former music teachers or currently teaching uh others have there's one gal that's in the uh Plano Community Orchestra um-hum uh just you know different backgrounds it's been really kind of interesting great so um um i play the piano and uh i have a four year old who who has started to play the piano he does that uh musically listens and then he can play which is kind of interesting i think it's because he's always heard music in our home all the since he was a baby oh yeah um-hum uh my husband and my other son who's eleven just got through singing in a musical here in in the community at Music Man oh they did yeah and it was lots of fun how did how did they get involved in that um basically they read in the newspaper that there were open auditions it was the Plano Repertory Theatre um-hum and so they went and tried out and my husband played Harold Hill from the Music Man and my son played one of the children in a band oh how fun so yeah it was really fun and uh my son plays the clarinet in his band at school and my daughter takes piano lessons too yeah um-hum but uh we just really like music it's a i i especially like it as an outlet when the TV goes off we get the TV off and and just have some nice quiet music um-hum um-hum um-hum yeah yeah that's nice you say have your four year old taking lessons already um-hum and uh who do you have her or him take it from um i have him take from a friend of mine who teaches Suzuki uh-huh which is an auditory type learning experience you listen to the music and then learn to play it by learning by hearing the intervals and things like that um-hum i teach uh like what is traditionally taught you know you look at the note on the page and you play what's on the piano but he can't learn like that he's a delayed child he's only about i guess he's about two and a half in his real understanding of things oh and uh so when my friend played something on the piano and he played it uh with his right hand we went wow we better have him do something do something you know educationally um-hum yeah yeah so that was really fun my husband and i love to go to the musicals downtown though well because my pardon me so my husband and i love to go to the musicals when they come into town into Dallas um-hum um-hum well i have an eight and a half year old daughter who's taken piano lessons since the started out at the age of just turning five because she wanted you know she just seemed to enjoy it so much and now my my four year old four and a half year old daughter is um is trying to imitate her older sister and wanting to play and she actually does some very nice chording just naturally she just oh i think that's great so i wasn't sure when to start her i didn't want to push her too early either but uh kind of had a mixed feelings about that scene that's really hard i think because especially if you start them and then they get pretty good and then they get close ten you know eleven or something and they go i don't want to do this anymore and you're like um-hum God i really want you to do it you know so sometimes it's hard to to know exactly when but yeah yeah i don't know if she acts like she wants to or says she wants to maybe you could have her take some for a while and see how she likes it um-hum um-hum yeah i think she'd like to i just don't know if it's really knowing from what my daughter has gone through she's she learned a lot and it course it was something she had to keep relearning if she ever got away from it it was something easily forgotten so uh-huh um i don't know if she's any farther ahead than those kids who started when they were eight or or should i say seven i mean she's not a gifted pianist in the sense that she's gonna excel just naturally she does have to really work at it but um so yeah uh so i'm kind of you know just playing with it but at this point we're going to kind of wait i think just more for the financial reasons of it anyway but that's like me well it can get expensive that's for sure yeah yeah i my friend is is very generous in in letting us have my children uh do the Suzuki method without paying a lot out um-hum oh that's good yeah so it's been good for our family well as a piano teacher do you have any feelings from kids who come from a Suzuki method have you had any former Suzuki students i don't have any Suzuki students um something happening to me at Christmas time that that verified to me that i will always i was wondering how they
