My first piano lesson

Technically it's my daughter first piano lesson at Yamaha Music School. Yamaha Music School require parent to stick around for the first 2 years.

The lesson began with singing "Do Re Me". I was thinking to myself, "Are we here for singing lesson or piano lesson?". It imply began to make sense when we were asked to turn on the electronic piano. That's right Electronic Piano! All students use electronic piano, only the teacher has a real piano in front. The real deal sounds so much better. Back to the singing, the teacher was actually using singing as a way to remember the notes.

So my daughter went playing the notes "Do Do Do".
"It's Do Do Do; Not do do do." : said the teacher.

What's up? What's the diff? The timing was not correct. The kids are playing too fast.

Next come the treble clef, the five lines and where to draw Do Re Me. Finally, I'm learning how to read the musical score! Am I the one attending piano lesson or my daughter? This is really a great deal. I'm paying only for my daughter school fees and I get to attend free piano lesson too!

It turns out the first song they are learning is "Hot Cross Buns!" which goes "Me Re Do, Me Re Do, Do Do Re Re Me Re Do".

That's for today lesson. For homework, the kids have to go back and learn the next song "May had a little lamb".

How I wish the piano I ordered from piano master will come in sooner so that both me and my daughter can start practising. Till then, we can only practise with our fingers.
