Allegretto

Overheard a minute ago:

Fiona, at the piano, sounding out Suzuki's "Allegretto" by ear. She starts on D, naturally, since she appears to have perfect pitch and Allegretto would only sound right on D. She gets the melody and the form right, with one glaring difference -- she plays it in d minor, complete with B-flats, because "I'm playing a different Allegretto." What a cool thing for her to do!
