J's piano teacher has been trying to get him to perform at a recital. So far he hasn't wanted to. Today however I proposed performing the German Volkslied "Alles neu macht der Mai," which he loves, and he seemed to warm to the idea.
I told him that most of the other students probably don't know many, if any, German songs, so this would be a chance to share something very special and unique with them. I found a version in the key of C, printed it and gave it to his piano teacher today, who was very excited and worked out the fingerings with J at the lesson.
