📋 All the information about the transcripts, notes and photo is available at www.cultivateyourfrench.com

My daughters Felicia and Lisa take music lessons with Claire Gautrot. They learn how to play Viola da gamba, an old instrument that first appeared in the 15th century and that our king Louis XIV really enjoyed. 

Claire is a musician, she loves to bring happiness to people through music. But she’s also a teacher. She says that it’s very important to share what moves you, to share the language of music and the gesture of playing music. Both my daughters really enjoy Claire’s personality and her way of teaching. Today, it’s our turn to have a moment with her. 

In today’s episode Claire is giving you a presentation of this instrument that she calls an old lady.
