Musty Music


Mom brought home a bunch of music from her parents' house this summer. Both sheet music and records. (Yes, we still have a record player that we use!)

She has often mentioned singing along with favorite records while growing up. I think Mom and her sister used to warble the operettas while washing dishes. And she can still quote nearly every word of "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?"

I wonder if my great-grandpa brought some of the sheet music over from Norway when he came in his teens...? It looks so fun to sightread at the piano!

But for now, all the music is airing out in the garage - waiting to be enjoyed again when it won't irritate allergies.
