Alrighty Then....

I think that I can safely say that Emma is musically talented. I already posted about her playing Beethoven's 9th Symphony ("Ode to Joy")--Rachel put up a video about it. Well, in the past two weeks, she has learned to play Brahm's "Lullaby," (you know, "go to sleep...go to sleep..go to sleep now, my darling...") "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," plus a song that Julia recently learned to play--we're not sure of the name of it, but it's on one of the "Baby Einstein" DVDs the kids used to watch. This is by herself. By ear.

Of course, she isn't playing with two hands. She just hammers out the melody with one finger. But she's three and a half......maybe by the time she's five!
