"HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEANNE"


This is Miss G with Little House of Music and I want everyone in the world today to sing Happy Birthday to my life long friend Jeanne. I have no picture yet but I'll post it the minute I get it.
Jeanne and I grew up together, she lived across the street. Of course we just looked at each other until we were old enough to cross the street when we were about 13! We had the coolest park right down the street from where we lived but that was also unheard of for us to go to the park and play. Now we are talking about the 50's not the year 2008! Guess Mother's will always be the same!
Jeanne and I have shared laughter, vacations, lunches, dinners, holidays and tears together. Now that's a friend. If we need each other for any reason we are always there for each other.
I love you Jeanne and I hope this year will be the best year ever for you, have tons of fun, and stay healthy.
I send a million hugs and kisses to you in good old PA.

"MR. EAMON, ANOTHER "TURKEY" STUDENT AT LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC"




Hi, this is Miss G with Little House of Music, can you tell how excited our Mr. Eamon is while waiting for his piano lesson!!! He was at camp all day out in the sun and had just about had it! Isn't he precious? His mother had to wake him up for the second picture we took while he took his piano lesson. You can just see by the look on his precious face that he is a little "Turkey!" He went from sleeping to playing the piano with no problems at all! Eamon is a trooper. You can also see in the picture just how much he loves playing the piano.
He may be a "Turkey" but he is certainly learning to play the piano and play it well. He played "Music Box Dancer" for our "Songs of May" party. I was truly amazed that he choose that song to play and memorized it when he has only been studying music for eight months. He has a super ear for music and is going to be a fantastic pianist if we can keep him awake! He is only seven, You Go Eamon!
Eamon is also a very good student at school. Music and good grades at school just seem to go together.
Thanks for sharing Eamon with me. He makes my week and I love him very much. He's a fine gentlemen!

"BROADWAY BOUND"


Miss G and her Little House of Music show team are BROADWAY BOND! Our Broadway show how has nine songs finished for our Broadway Show named "LYRIC AND LORE." What fun we are having. We are all helping each other with our songs and script.
This is the first Broadway Show I have ever worked on. I have written books, Little House of Music animation scripts and written over 5,000 songs but this is the first Broadway Show. I wish I would have started with the Broadway Shows. It's all of the above together with my favorite type of music Broadway show music.
Hallie, Madison, Louis and myself, Miss G think about our script and songs all the time. It's like we are inside of the show!
Whatever happens with "Lyric and Lore" will happen but we are better because we are writing it! It's a challenge! It's like my students are at a summer creative writing camp!!
I can't wait for you all to see and hear "Lyric and Lore."

"MEET OR STAR MISS ELISE"




Meet our up coming model, isn't she beautiful! Miss G with Little House of Music would like you to meet our Elise.
Elise is a pianist, she already plays very well, she's one of my students that adds colors to her songs and has a wonderful touch when she plays. She doesn't bang the keys, her touch with her fingers makes the piano sing. Elise played "Part of Your World" at our "Songs of May" party. Elise is also on our "Two Octaves of Kids" CD. She composed a beautiful song.
Not only does Elise excel at the piano, she is a great student with very high grades in school. Elise also plays the Viola in the school orchestra and runs the 800 meter relay and 100 meter relay on her schools track team, plus she is a cheerleader for her school. You Go Girl!
All these activities make me tired just writing about them!
This summer she has already held a cheer leading boot camp and is soon off to Atlanta, Georgia where she will help her church mission for a week with the inner city kids. What a wonderful thing foa a teenager to do when you are on summer vacation. Help someone else! I'm very proud of you Elise.
Elise has made teaching very special for me. As I sit and listen to her play now and think back when I taught her where middle C was on the piano, from then to now, I've earned several million dollars not to mention all the hugs, laughter and smiles at lessons. I consider Elise a friend of mine as I do her whole family. What wonderful people! Mom and Dad, thank you for sharing Elise with me. I love her and love coaching her on the piano. She will always be one of my special students.

"A NEW STAR IS BORN"




Isn't she precious? Isn't she special? This is Miss G with Little House of Music and I'd like to introduce to you our "STAR" Miss Rachel.
Rachel who is now eight started lessons with me and took Little House of Music and now is a pianist! At our "Songs of May" party Rachel played "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes." She did a marvelous job with our favorite Disney tune!
Rachel's sister Bella just started to take Little House of Music and I'm sure the younger sister Marissa will be in our class one day soon, all she needs is a little age.
You go Rachel. We are all so very proud of you!

"BEETHOVEN'S SONATAS"




Miss G with Little House of Music loves this one. With gas at $4.00 a gallon there is still something of pure value for very little cost.

"LIFE CAN'T BE ALL BAD WHEN FOR TEN DOLLARS YOU CAN BUY ALL THE BEETHOVEN SONATAS AND LISTEN TO THEM FOR TEN YEARS.
William F. Buckley, Jr.

Take a listen and enjoy!
