The girls have had their first instrumental music lesson.
Peggy Sue just couldn't wait to get started and had her 'cello out and set up before her teacher Miss Camille Capricccio arrived.
Peggy Sue learns about the four different strings and their names and then is tested on them.
She practises nice long bows on the open strings to help develop a good tone and bow control.
She looks like a natural!
Later in the day Edith has her first flute lesson.
Her teacher is Ms Fenella Fortissimo and she shows her how to hold the flute, form an embouchure and make her first tentative sounds on the flute.
Poor Edith finds it quite hard.
Ms Fortissimo suggests that Edith just practises with the head joint for the first week. She has also told Edith how important it is not to over breath as often beginning students can end up feeling quite dizzy when learning to first make a sound on their flute.
The girls have been given a practice sheet and their first lessons. Both girls have been asked to write a little paragraph about their instrument and to draw some diagrams showing the different parts of their instruments.
