Dear Socha,
Your Dad and I love music, but for some reason we haven't been playing a lot of music for you. People say that classical music is good for babies, so when we do play something it often is Bach or Beethoven or Vivaldi, etc. And for such a young girl, you've heard quite a lot of live music. Last month we listened to the first song that Take 6 performed for the students here (then we had to get you home to bed). Last week you were quiet and very interested in the chamber music performances by DA students:
It was actually your bed time for this concert too, but you enjoyed two performances and most of a third before we had to leave.
Then last night, one of the many very talented teachers here sat down to play the grand piano in the dining hall after most everyone had left. He played several lovely tunes, including one he wrote when he first moved to New York City, called, "The City." It was so beautiful and emotional. I hope he will give me a copy of his recording of it! Anyway, you were unabashedly staring at him and the piano while he played, so I thought you might like to plink a key or two:

Perhaps you will be a musician. Hopefully you'll be more willing to practice at it than I was...
