  • @LizzieSmithLegendsandLace

    Thanks so much! I so appreciate finding this for our AO hymn this month. We've been loving the Mother Goose canons. It's funny, I learned how to sing harmony as a child, and my mother often had us sing rounds. But as a singing mother I have been unable to help my children learn harmony. It had never occurred to me that singing in rounds was a key part of learning to sing separate parts. Since we've begun singing rounds together, their ability to harmonize has begun to develop. Your channel has been an immeasurable blessing to our family, thank you.

    • @TheSingingFamilyChannel
      @TheSingingFamilyChannel Před 5 měsíci

      Thanks for listening. I’m happy to share a pdf for this if you’d like - no need for you to transcribe it! We like to teach by ear as much as possible because, while written sheet music is obviously a very helpful tool and reference, we believe that learning by ear is a more efficient way to transfer music (or poetry or scripture) directly onto the tablets of our hearts. Our hope is that students will be able to memorize the music (and the passage of scripture) in the amount of time that it takes to watch the video. My experience has been that using sheet music as a reference can be very helpful, but it can also sometimes slow down the process of memorization. Either way, happy to share the pdf if you email me at Nate at thesingingfamily dot com. Thanks again and happy singing!
