KEYBOARD IS "KEYS" To MUSIC!

My talent for this year is keyboard. We are learning to play three songs. The three songs are, “Arioso, Joy to the world, and Angels we have heard on high.”These songs are for the winter concert.

I have learned about staff which are the lines in music. I have also learned about Treble clef and Bass clef. There are two different types of notes and they are space notes and line notes. For Treble clef and Bass clef there are different line notes and space notes. Good ways to remember the line notes and space notes for Treble clef and Bass clef is Every Good Boy Does Fine , FACE, All Cows Eat Grass, and Great Big Ducks Fly Away. One thing to remember is that there is only A, B, C, D , E, F, G ,but there is no H.

There are also letters above and below the staff. After the first letter you have to put a ledger line. You put the note on the note on the ledger line but the second time you have to put it above but the third time you have to add another ledger line. Between the clefs there is middle C which is the note that is between Treble and Bass clef.

In conclusion, this is some of the stuff I have learned in keyboard. This talent is very fun. I look forward to having this talent next year.

Partners in Learning

This year we have 2 concerts coming up. One is in December and the other is in June. We have 3 songs for the December concert and the whole class already knows all of them. But the songs are challenging. Now we are doing our first June concert. I'm a little nervous for the concerts but I had one last year so I think I Won't be that scared since I know what's going to happen. But last year when I first went up on the stage I was terrified but hopefully this year ill be less scared.

I sit next to Natalia and she's very helpful partner. She would help me every time I would need help on a song.

I know I'll get better in keyboard while the year goes on!

ALL IN THE FAMILY

At Ditmas, my talent course is Keyboard. I had little knowledge on how to play the keyboard. I use to watch my brother play keyboard and that made me interested.

My brother also had Mr. Kass at Ditmas. He played for all 3 years. I use to watch him play in the auditorium during the concerts.

Now that I tried Keyboard with Mr. Kass, I realized that Keyboard is extremely fun and I wouldn’t switch to another talent.

The songs that Mr.Kass, our keyboard teacher, gives us are both fun and challenging to play. My partner Jolie and I work together on each song. He says we make a good team.

Last but not least, we all love having a little fun in keyboard. We practice our favorite songs on the keyboard. I’m looking forward to playing in front of an audience for the 2nd time. I was nervous the first time, but this time I'll be more prepared because I know what to expect.

"NOTE" WORTHY

The talent I’m in at the moment is keyboard/piano. There is a surprising amount of stuff that goes into it. First off, there are 2 clefs. Treble and base clef.

For trouble, the notes go “ Every good boy does fine” for the lines, and “ face” for the spaces. Base goes “ Great big ducks fly away” for the lines, and “ All cows eat grass” for the spaces. Then there are the beats which are more complicated, but they basically tell you how long you stay on a note.

There are whole notes, half-notes, quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, and so on. Then there are sharps, flats, and naturals. A sharp raises the note by a half-step , while the flat does the opposite. And a natural keeps the note the same and negates sharps and flats. Right now, “ Angels we have heard on high” and “ Joy to the world” are our December show songs.

I'll Make a "Note" of This!

The talent that I am currently in right now is keyboard (piano). There are a bunch of things that consist with it. It includes notes, beats, sharps, flats, naturals,and clefs.

The notes for a treble clef “ Every good boy does fine” and “ Face.” Face are the space notes and the line notes is “ Every good boy does fine.” Beats tell you how long you stay on that note for. There are whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, and etc.

A sharp raises the note a half step in sound. A flat lowers the note a half step in sound. A natural cancels the sharp or flat. The songs that we are learning right now is “ Angels heard on high”,” Joy to the world”, and Arioso. Angels and Joy are the holiday songs were gonna be playing.
