A Little Composer

My cute little student Ellie comes to lessons and likes to show me the songs she is writing.  These are songs that she has made up and then memorized.  A few weeks ago, I suggested that she write them down on manuscript paper.  We started notating her song together through the first two measures.  She came back the next week with the majority of her song notated.



It's so exciting to see Ellie put all the theory she is learning into practice.  She is excited about being a composer and I'm so proud of her accomplishments.  She wrote her mom a song for mother's day and has more projects ready to be put to paper.
