Jr. tries to play the Veena
The next stop on our 2015 year end trip was to Suresh mama's house. Let posterity note that we stayed with them for days and did not make a flying visit!
As soon as we reached Suresh Mama's (uncles) house, the first thing Jr. saw was the nice Veena sitting in their family room. His mom plays the Veena and she let Jr. try it and was giving her a quick lesson.
Jr. loved it so much that she asked to say there and play while we wanted to keep traveling. We had to pull her off the Veena.
By day 2, she got the hang of it and with more coaching from Amala paati she was able to play "Vara Veena"
Now she wants us to buy her a Veena.
Guess nothing beats a Tanjavoor Veenai, to get a kid hooked to Carnatic music!
