Vocal Voices

The elder daughter (14 I think) two doors along has been learning to play the flute for quite a long time.
They don't often have their windows open so haven't heard her much since last summer.
She's been playing today, an hour or so this morning and nearly two this afternoon, and it's been like a free concert (albeit with only one instrument!)
It's been absolutely lovely, whether in the garden or indoors
She's obviously practising for a proms-type concert as I've heard lots of familiar tunes, and a couple that I know I know but can't remember what they're called, Mozart was one. There's one she's struggling with, must be a new one to her
Finished now, but what a change from noise that people have to complain about, I do hope anyone else who could hear enjoyed it as much as I have

How lovely Di.

Hope she does well especially after practicing so hard.

aw, that is lovely and does make a very pleasant change. You should find out what she's practising for and go

That's lovely Di. Unfortunately, one of our young neighbours is learning the drums

Ah sorry Nanna, you got the short straw xx

Oh dear, Nanna

Di, you should tell how much you enjoyed it.

That must've been really lovely Di!
I learnt the flute when I was at secondary school. I sold my flute to buy a plane ticket to the US when I was 18. Really wish I hadn't now, although I wasn't very good.

My sister's learning to play, she started last year at the age of 57. She's always been the musical one though. She played piano, violin and guitar when she was younger (I used to assist with the piano playing - by bashing the keys and singing loudly while she played something lovely). I always remember a huge argument one night when her school friend's mother turned up at the door with a trumpet. Julie had been told that it was for sale so said she'd like it, without asking our parents. Mom went mad and refused to let her have it, not just because of the expense but out of respect for the neighbours too

How lovely!
