Earlier this week we had a man called Ryan Neville come to our school to teach us about music. Ryan Neville played a few songs and told us about some parts on the kit drum and piano he had brought in his baby grand piano the black keys on the pianos are called sharp and then there was a guitar accessory called a slide. When you use the sharp you hold it against a string and it makes a different noise just like a whammy bar. Here is a dlo on Ryan Neville.
