Song of the Week

This song has been out for a while now and you know you've alllllll heard it on the radio. I picked this piece up one day at the music store while I was shopping for some new lesson books, and I just couldn't put it back down! I have several little girls that listen to Adele on the radio and have been asking me to put some of her music on their list of future songs to play. Since I'm constantly looking for pieces that will challenge my kids, but also keep them involved and intrigued, I decided to give it a shot. I am OH SO glad that I did! This song is an incredible exercise in timing. Many students who have never been asked to use a metronome before, don't understand the necessity of the annoying ticking machine, but after giving my kids this piece and kicking it off with the metronome, I have kids asking me if they can use the amazing ticking machine with every song they have! Now when I see new students asking for a metronome...my day is made. Since I just started on this song with some of my girls, I haven't had anyone completely finish it yet...but I will keep you updated and let you know how we all progress!!
