Recently, Yoshi loves classical music, particularly “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” by Mozart. He asks me to play the CD and starts dancing with the symphony. We were amazed by his variety of motions, especially when we first saw them: waving his hands like a professional conductor, swinging his body from side to side, crouching down and wiggling his hip, jumping with a broad smile, touching walls, taking funny steps toward us… He seems to choose his moves by the tone of the music by using all parts of his body. Amazing!
Before knowing his inclination, I always played children’s songs or J-pops. However, because one of my friends gave me a CD of classical music specially programmed for expectant mothers and fetus in their wombs, I gave it a try. Then, it was Yoshi, who was delighted the most. Originally, I am not good at classical music. It is shameful to say this, but I used to doze peacefully at the concert halls many times, sometimes even bump my head to the back of the chair, next to my husband, who is very fond of the sound of pianos and orchestra. Yoshi must take musical talent/sense from his father! Good for him. (20minutes)
