Musical Key

Musicians of the world, beware!  Fiorella has taken up the piano again.

Actually, it's been going on for about three years, which was as long as Fio took lessons when she was a kid, stopping when she was in junior high and discovered boys. Now, your Fio wasn't ever a virtuoso, but she did okay, and she's finally at  the same level again--not too good, not too bad.  And while her fingers aren't as obedient now, she's more aware of patterns, of major and minor, of chord shifts, probably because she's had some music theory classes along the way.

But the important thing is the reason she's on the piano every day--not because she doesn't want to disappoint her teacher at an upcoming lesson, but because she enjoys playing.
