Week 9 - Count on Me

Sunday, June 7, 2020 by Kylie Johnson | Student News




Winter is 9 years old & learnt to play 'Macaroni Cha Cha' and 'Famous People' from memory. The pieces are from her method books (Hal Leonard Book 2 & Piano Adventures 2A).

....special thanks to the brilliant backing percussionist! 😝


 

 


Count on me! 
BRUNO MARS

This is such a feel good tune! We are learning the chord progressions in lessons.

Students will get a musical advantage if they listen & get familiar with the song. Play it loud and sing along!
