This morning’s task was about Viola the Bird and Beethoven. First, I watched Ode to Joy Beethoven played on the piano. Then I went to Viola the Bird on Google Arts and Culture and practised playing Ode to Joy on the virtual cello. After that, I pressed record and played it again, and so this is what my Ode to Joy sounds like.
I used my iPad to do it for my chromebook kind of jammed with it and a stylus pen which is a pen for touchscreen. I found it real easy because it was only a matter of making the pen left and right.

Mōrena Isa,
What a great step up from your previous post and it is awesome to see you learning some more fun facts about Beethoven.
I think your song sounds amazing. Did you learn any facts about the instrument you used to make this song or any composers who use the same instrument? If you were to add other instruments to your song what would you add?

Hi Zana,
No, I did not research about the Cello or any composer, but if I can add another instruments in my song, I would add a piano because I know a bit of piano.
