What's on my insides OR... the number 4

I have played the piano since I was 5. I am not particularly magnificent but my Mom NEVER had to fight with me to practice because I just couldn't get enough of it.

I LOVED all the classical music my teacher would assign--I was in all the choirs in school, took voice lessons, in all the plays--yes I was one of THOSE people.
A freaky little music/theatre nerd.

Although my talents do not extend to the level a lot of you out in blog land posses---I can honestly say I am one of, if not THE best at music appreciation that I know. You perform it--I will devour it, chew on it, listen to it, love it and then do a little dance (on the inside of course--it ruins the whole thing if I jiggle my fat) and do it all over again!

In fact--I feel just like Snoopy in this youtube--when I let my happy dance on the inside, migrate to the outside!




So in that vein of thought--I wanted to share 2 you tube videos I found.


The first one I stole from MessyJess--but our family has LOVED Jon Schmidt FOREVER!! He just keeps getting better and better! I use his Piano Teaching Method with my students and it has been a big success so far. Anyhoo--if you could see me on the inside---this is the song (played just this way by these 2 men) that would best describe my soul--I have been playing it all day on my Bose. I think Bose is celestial, by the way. Enjoy!






This next one is just the way I wish the world was--that we could just randomly break into song and dance and everyone would know the moves and words and even if they didn't they would join in and just FEEL the joy!







I LOVE music and I love all the friends and family that I connect with, learn from and share the journey with---here in blog land---HAVE A HAPPY DAY!!

P.S. Either my medication is working especially well today or Jon Schmidt needs to make a new video everyday---not sure which--but gosh its a happy day here--


just--




GOSH!!!!
