I remembered i did my first scale transformation when i was doing Grade 5 theory at the age of approximately 14 yrs old. And little did i realize that i could actually improvise and make transformation on songs so that they are a few keys lower or higher. I read notes well and i could sight read, but that lacking of musical appreciation doesn't qualify myself as a music learner.
But being a homeschooler herself, Jo Von, has all the time that she could have with the piano.
She can't read any notes yet coz we have not exposed her to proper piano lesson. We did try once to send her to Miss Ho class when she was about 4 year old but she wasnt that ready and she asked to stop. We agreed and told her she could learn later when she is ready to attend the piano lesson again.
But this morning, amazingly she told us there were many ways of playing Mary Had A Little Lamb. She was actually playing the song with C major, then D major(with the F# key!!) and G major!
It surprised me on how well she had learned herself!
Homeschool works, doesnt it?
