Mali liked everything, as long as she was big enough to participate (when she wasn't, there was ANGER). Here's her being happy:
For Iz, the highlight was playing the theremin. She's wanted to see a theremin for a long time, and getting to actually play one was a serious thrill. Just check out her ear-to-ear smile:
The theremin tune she requested to perform was Saint-Saens' The Swan, which she had played at her piano concert the previous day. (The theremin player was impressed by her choice, and we could hear him fine-tuning his own performance for quite a while as we wandered through more Maker Faire exhibits). Another one of her piano offerings was the 12th Street Rag:
And, in needing to fulfill some kind of typical sassy child stereotype, Mali took Iz's scissors and cut herself some bangs. She now looks like Dee Snider. I am in mourning.
Look at both of them go! I do hope the theremin player let go of Iz's hands at some point and let her experiment. FYI, there's a two-hour special on the Ovation channel tonight called "Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey." Iz might like that, if you get that channel.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! Iz is awesome on the piano.
ReplyDeletePlease tell her it was a joy to listen.
