Violin lessons
This is a violin bridge
This is a violin showing the bridge and the strings.
The notes as represented by the strings.
All this to tell you KeesKennis is tone deaf, and he cannot sing at all.
Not that this stops him at all - ed
He even performs at poetry evenings -ed
Stunned SILENCES everywhere - ed
Disgrace - ed
Nevertheless, KeesKennis's beloved Mother and Father, in family tradition, sent the firstborn boy, like the sisters' preceding him, for music lessons.
I started with Piano and got chucked out.
Fermata
Adagio
Lento
Scherzo
I ended with Mr. Osche, a violin teacher.
With my Dad in tow we went for another lesson.
Of all the questions Mr. Osche asked me, I got this one right.
Oshce: How do you play G & E together.
KeesKennis: Oh that is easy, you turn the bow upside down and go underneath the strings.
Dad: Thank you Mr. Osche we will not be bothering you anymore.
As we left I heard Mr. Osche let OUT a sigh... (as dramatic as our beloved cat Babaloo, above.)
A gratuitous picture of beloved mother.
