Budding Musician

February 15, 2012

From the time she was born (well, long before she was born), Catherine was surrounded by music.  There has always been music in our house...piano, flute, Euphonium (I'm not sure what it was really called...E flat horn?  Something like that - sorry, Steve), singing, records, cassettes, eventually DVDs...  Catherine made musical sounds long before she started talking in words.  She was a great imitator of sounds and showed great interest in everything musical.  She had an amazing ability to repeat sounds she heard (and to do it on pitch).  Once Catherine started talking, the fun really began.  I loved to sit in the living room and listen during bathtime when Catherine and Steve created operas about bathtime (and any other topic they could come up with).   The music has never stopped.  There is music in her fingers, in her voice, in her soul.
