Playing in 4 flats

I was never good at playing the piano!  My sister, Rose Marie, 17 months older, was a prodigy!  I never practiced nor did I care a hoot about it!   And I could never play four flats!

Daddy made me play once at Wyatt Baptist and I told him I couldn't play anything in four flats!  He told me that he had just learned that Cora Aldridge could not be there and to pick out the songs I could play and give him the list!  Like a fool, I fell for it!

He came to rostrum, tore up my list before my eyes and every song he picked out had four flats!  And I survived the experience!  Now when I play a hymn by ear, I play it in four flats!!
