Saw this on Instagram the other day and couldn’t resist trying it. Play a normal c major scale with one hand then just up to the 7th in the other. Proper brain workout!

Found on the manuscript white board - that’ll cheer up a Monday morning at school ☺️
Shoppie all re-stocked for our Summer Term! Hoping to achieve some more Grade exams this term and make our last leaps of progress before the summer break. The more practice sessions at home, the more “Beethoven Bucks” you earn to spend. What do you have your eye on, I wonder??

TWO SLEEPS to go! Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday. Last bits of info for you:
🕰️ Doors will open from 2pm. First half gets underway at 2.15pm. Depending how long I natter on for we should be at the interval by 2.50pm. If coming only for the 2nd half then 3pm is a safe bet! (Remember the clocks go forward!!)
📖 Please remember your music! I have spares for most things but not all!
💰 Bring along some cash if you wish to play the “Mystery bottle Tombola” at £1 for 2 shots! Bar will be open too but takes card 👍🏻
🎶 Wear whatever you want! Looking forward to a lovely afternoon 🎹

I’ll send out the running order later in the week if you’re keen to see or need to work out timings for other commitments 😊🎹🎶
