My folks held on to this. Drawing at age 2.
A pop anthem for drawing and tapping the hemispheres.
“But, I can’t draw!” You never did as a kid? Quoted at the site DrawingWriting.com:
Only one thing is certain – that written language of children develops in this fashion, shifting from drawings of things to drawings of words.
–Lev Vygotsky, “The Prehistory of Writing,” an essay, c. 1930 in The Mind in Society, 1978.
Always amazed to remember that drawing predates written language.
The music starts out in Bb minor and in measure 2, the Dominant V7 (F7) eases the transition into Bb in measure 3, which is the parallel major. I use the Dominant here in the same way I did for the Midnight Angels lullaby, just reversing the major/minor roles of the home key.
