Kitah Gimmel's Dancing Feet

Music Moves Us 


     What do you do when you hear a stirring piece of music?  Do you sit quietly and focused, at the edge of your seat, listening and watching intently?  We do!  Or do you want to get up and dance?  We want to do that, too!

     Kitah Gimmel was entertained by Mortimer's dad recently.  He brought along his accordion and played for us.  At first, we sat quietly in our Big Library, taking it all in.  After we heard a song or two, we were ready to get up and dance, to join in and experience the simcha of it all.

     We had plenty of  time to listen, dance--and rest for a few minutes.  Then, Mortimer's dad showed us how the accordion worked.  It was fascinating.

     For most of us, this was the first time experiencing this instrument up close.  We looked inside it,and some of us touched it.  The accordion looks a little like a piano, works a little bit like a bagpipe.  All we know is--it was fun!

Great Times in Kitah Gimmel,
Enjoying the fun,
Morah Susan and Morah Sterny
