So Kay is continuing on with her flute-playing. One of her friends got this, and she begged for it, and I decided it was a worthwhile investment.<\/p>\n

It's a collection of sheet music for flute for the LotR movies, with an eye toward that player as the lead whenever possible (there are also sets for trumpet, saxes, horn, clarinets). The music book also has a CD for each song, both a demo of how it should sound, and an accompaniment<\/i> for the rest of the music for the piece (all that lovely harmony and counterpoint and so forth from these tunes).<\/p>\n

Not only is she really enthusiastically trying this stuff out (it's at a higher level than she is as a player, but she's diving into it with a will), but it's a hugely fun concept. In theory, you could get the other instruments going along with it live, and there's even, for teachers, a piano accompaniment book.<\/p>\n

Hearing her play LotR tunes is just a hell of a lot of fun. (Whistling the along to the counterpoint is, too.)<\/p>\n

There's a similar Harry Potter compilation that might just be appearing for her birthday, too.<\/p>\n
