So, instead, we were able to take extra time to listen to and enjoy The Story of Swan Lake from Maestro Classics. I allowed Landon to skip out for the week, and Kennady and I listened to the story and selections of music from Tchaikovsky's popular ballet. The CD and accompanying booklet also helped her learn a little about major and minor keys, and about Tchaikovsky's life. I think her favorite part may have been the "Speed Metal Swan" selection! I'll be posting more details about this CD in a review within the next few days!
I've been reading a biography of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and it is rough going. I hope to finish it next week.
Oh, and Kennady sang a duet with me in church on Sunday!
This post is linked at ~a teaching heart~ where we are keeping each other accountable for making time for music in our homeschooling!
