knocks on the door and walks in. "Hej?"
looks to the door thinking that was impolite but he didn't comment on that. "Guten tag." He held a violin tuning it by ear.
walks up to him. "Hej... I was interested in taking a class, but I don't know much about music..."
looks at him and smiles. "You want to take a music course? What kind of instrument are you interested in?"
nods. "I'm... not sure." He looks around. "I've never touched an instrument..."
blinks. "Oh really? Then it may be a bit difficult, but it is never too late to learn to play any instruments. Would you like to try the_
violin? I'm almost done tuning this one."
smiles. "Sure, why not." He takes a seat near him.
smiles at him pulling the bow across the strings, to an untrained ear it sounded perfect, he frowned slightly and adjusted one of the_
scrunches his face a bit. "Close... but not perfect." He said quietly, more so to himself.
pulls the bow away and looks at him. "What was that?"
looks at him and smiles, shaking his head a bit. "Oh, nothing."
just looks at him. "You knew it was still off key, even slightly." He was shocked
shrugs. "It just... didn't sound right to me..."
nods to him. "Well you are right, it wasn't. It was off." He pulled the bow back across the strings again, the sound was perfect.
smiles, liking the sound it made. "So, what's the basics?"
hums a bit showing him a simple scale. "Do you think you could play that?" He motioned to a tuned violin.
frowns a bit and shakes his head. "Nej... I... I really know nothing about instruments... I don't even know how to hold a violin."
nods slightly. "Oh yes." He placed his violin down. "I'll show you, now pick it up."
carefully picks it up, being careful of the strings. He holds it more or less correctly, just his hand placement is off.
smiles. "Your placement is off but other then that you're right." He fixed the others hands. "And don't forget the bow."
nods, carefully picking it up. He was a little nervous of playing it across the strings, worried he'd break something...
smiles a bit. "You don't need to be so worried." He picked up his violin again posistioning his fingers. "Now, like this." He pulled the_
strings more quickly across the strings back and forth playing a scale slowly.
watches him intently before trying himself. He bit his tongue a bit on concentration as he copied the other, making a
few mistakes buy quickly fixing that and plays the scale without flaw.
paitently waits for him, he was amazed, but he had guessed the other had perfect pitche. "Very good." He played a few more notes.
smiles and copies him again, happy that he's getting it.
smiles as he got it right. "You're very good at this. Can you read music?"
shrugs. "Dunno. Never tried before."
nods a bit assuming he can't then. "So You know nothing besides pitch, ja?"
shrugs again. "I didn't even know I had pitch... Give me some music, and help me learn the notes."
nods to him. "Alright." He smiled and placed the violin and bow down before going to get some more simple sheet music for him.
gently places the violin on his lap for now.
comes back before picking up a music stand and placing the sheet music on it. "Here you are, this is pretty simple try this."
carefully reads the notes, going over it a few times in his head. He slowly picked the violin back up and began to play.
watches him, he wondered if he understood them.
plays slowly, but correctly. Every time he got a note wrong he quickly corrected himself.
sits amazed, he found a person with amazing talent and they didn't even know.
notices him watching and stops. "Is something wrong...?"
shakes his head. "No Nothing. I'm just amazed, I haven't seen anyone with suck talant before."
smiles and looks down a bit. "Ah... I see..." Continued to play.
smiles at him, he was amazed and so happy. "What is your name anyways?"
keeps playing, looking at the notes but talks to the other. "Ah, I'm Søren."
nods to him. "It's a pleasure. I'm Professor Edelstein, Well.. Roderich Edelstein. Actually.."
hums. "Can I call ye teach?"
chuckles. "No one has ever asked to call me that.. But sure."
smiles. "It's what I call all my profs."
raises an eyebrow. "Really now?"
nods. "Mhmm. Some care, some don't. Either way I'm callin' them what I want." Looks at him, stopping for a bit. "But ye were
nice enough to help me with this, so I figured I should ask first."
chuckles. "Well I'm glad I get the privilege of you to ask."
smiles and looks back to the music. "Do ye have anything a bit more advanced then this?"
nods to him. "I have plenty." He went and took a few more pieces out, each a bit more advanced.
concentrates and starts playing the more advanced work, going slowly.
just watches and listens if the other needs help.
like he's doing pretty well. He's getting better at reading the music. He just saw it as another language to learn.
he is doing amazingly well, he had never seen anyone do this well.
finishes the piece and puts the violin down, taking a break. He massaged his hand a bit.
chuckles a bit. "Ah your hand may be a bit sore if you aren't used to doing that."
nods. "Ja, I might stop for now... but I'd like to come back later and practice after yer class."
nods to him. "Anytime you and I don't have classes, I would be more then happy to have you here."
smiles. "Tak. It might be late, because I have classes almost all day everyday..."
nods to him. "That's fine, I'll either be doing work or playing an instrument."
smirks more and carefully puts the violin down. "Tak for yer time, teach." Holds out his hand.
takes his hand and smiles. "You're very much welcome."
gets up. "I need to go study before my next class, but like I said... I'll be back."
nods to him. "You're more then welcome to come here."
smiles and waves as he leaves. "See ye later, teach~"
waves slightly. "Good bye." He went to finish tuning the rest of the instruements.
