The Band Student

My 13 year old plays baritone in his school band. When he learns to play pieces I am familiar with, I like to find examples on YouTube so he can hear the way it is supposed to sound.

His latest is "My Hat, It Has Three Corners" -- based on The Carnival of Venice folk tune. We found these fun videos:

Violin (I love the hair on the pianist on this one!)



Accordion - this guy makes an old fogey instrument look cool!



Who knew a simple children's song could have such classy variations!
