HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY?

I'M FEELING GOOD.

WHAT I BROUGHT TODAY IS A FIFE.

IT'S CALLED A FIFE.

PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING MUSIC WITH INSTRUMENTS LIKE THIS FOR A LONG, LONG TIME, EVEN BEFORE YOUR GRANDPARENTS WERE BORN.

[BLOWS AIR] THE PEOPLE WHO PLAY INSTRUMENTS LIKE THIS DON'T GO TO THE STORE TO BUY THEM.

NO.

THEY MAKE THEM FROM TREES OR PLANTS OR THINGS LIKE THAT NEARBY.

I BORROWED THIS FROM JOE NEGRI.

HE HAD A DISPLAY OF THESE AT HIS SHOP.

[BLOWS AIR] THIS FIFE IS VERY, VERY HARD TO PLAY.

I HAVE A DIFFERENT KIND OF AN INSTRUMENT FOR BLOWING IN THE KITCHEN.

LET'S GO OUT THERE, AND I'LL SHOW YOU.

COME ALONG.

I WAS DOING THIS ONE MYSELF.

MAKING THIS FROM THINGS THAT I HAD NEARBY.

THESE ARE BOTTLES WITH COLORED WATER IN THERE.

HERE'S A PLAIN BOTTLE WITHOUT ANY IN IT.

[BLOWING LOW NOTES] I JUST BLOW IT.

LET ME SEE.

[BLOWING HIGHER NOTES] [BLOWING LOWER NOTES] [BLOWING HIGHER NOTES] I THOUGHT MAYBE I'D TRY TO PLAY THAT SONG "TREE, TREE, TREE."

LET'S SEE.

[PLAYING "TREE, TREE, TREE"] OH, I NEED ANOTHER.

♪ AH ♪ HERE'S SOME WITH WATER.

NO.

THAT'S TOO HIGH.

♪ DO ♪ ♪ OOH ♪ NO.

♪ DO DO ♪ OOH.

THAT'S PRETTY CLOSE.

NOW IT'S ALL RIGHT.

MAYBE I'LL PUT SOME, UH, FOOD COLORING IN.

HEY.

THAT'S PRETTY THE WAY THAT MIXES, ISN'T IT?

I LOVE TO DISCOVER THINGS LIKE THAT.

UM, I'LL MIX IT UP, AND THEN WOULD YOU SING RIGHT ALONG WITH ME WHILE WE DO OUR "TREE, TREE, TREE" SONG?

YOU KNOW... ♪ TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE ♪ ♪ TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE, TREE ♪ ♪ WE LOVE YOU, YES, WE DO YES, WE DO ♪ ♪ WE LOVE YOU ♪ OK. [PLAYING "TREE, TREE, TREE"] [KNOCK ON DOOR] THERE'S SOMEBODY AT THE DOOR.

[KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK] WELL, THAT'S OUR KIND OF BLOWING INSTRUMENT.

SEE WHO IT IS.

OH, IT'S JOE NEGRI.

COME IN, JOE.

HELLO, FRED.

HI.

HOW ARE YOU?

HOW ARE YOU?

DO YOU HAVE THE FIFE?

YES, I DO.

OH, GOOD.

I'M GOING OVER-- THANK YOU FOR LOANING IT TO ME.

I'M GOING OVER TO HEAR THE FIFE AND DRUMMERS OVER AT BETTY'S LITTLE THEATER.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME ALONG?

OH, I WOULD!

YOU KNOW, THIS THING IS REALLY HARD TO PLAY.

OH, IS IT EVER.

I KNOW.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO TO SEE SOME PEOPLE WHO REALLY KNOW HOW TO PLAY THIS?

THEY'RE REHEARSING FOR A PERFORMANCE TONIGHT.

OH, GOOD.

WELL, LET'S ALL GO THEN TOGETHER.

OK. [FIFE AND DRUMS PLAYING] OH!

OH, BOY!

THAT'S GREAT!

THAT'S JUST GREAT.

WHAT A TREAT THAT IS TO HEAR.

HOW ARE YOU?

MISTER ROGERS AND-- WELL, YOU KNOW JOE NEGRI.

THIS IS OTHAR TURNER.

MR. TURNER, GLAD TO MEET YOU.

YES, SIR.

THANK YOU.

PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

JESSIE MAE HEMPHILL.

HI, MISS HEMPHILL.

GLAD TO MEET YOU.

BETTY: AND ABE YOUNG.

MR. YOUNG.

I CAN'T GET ANY TONE OUT OF THIS, MR. TURNER.

COULD YOU TELL ME ABOUT THIS THING?

YEAH.

I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW HOW-- COME ON DOWN.

THEN WE CAN-- WELL, UH...

THIS CANE IS WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT.

YOU SEE THAT?

IT'S A CANE?

THAT'S THE FIRST HOLE-- THIS IS THE CANE RIGHT HERE.

SEE, THAT GROWED UP ON THIS-- THAT'S THE FIRST HOLE.

YOU BLOW IN IT RIGHT THERE.

UH-HUH.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU REAM THIS CANE OUT HERE, SEE HERE?

THEN YOU PLACE YOUR FINGERS JUST LIKE THIS.

GET YOU A PIECE OF CHALK UP HERE AND MARK THAT AND MARK THAT AND ON DOWN.

WELL, HOW DID YOU LEARN TO DO THIS?

JUST SEED A OLD MAN DOING IT, AND I STOOD AND WATCHED HIM, LEARNED HOW TO-- I WANTED TO BLOW IT, BUT HE WOULDN'T LET ME BLOW IT.

HE SAID, "I'LL MAKE YOU ONE, SON.

IF YOU'LL BE A SMART BOY, I'LL MAKE YOU A FIFE."

I SAID, "WELL, I'M GONNA BE A SMART.

I WANT YOU TO MAKE ME A FIFE."

UH-HUH.

HE SAID, "ALL RIGHT."

SAID, "NEXT RAINY DAY COME"-- WE WAS ON A FARM.

"NEXT RAINY DAY COME, OTHAR, I'M GONNA MAKE YOU A FIFE.

"YOU CAN'T DO NOTHING WITH IT, BOY."

I SAID, "YES, SIR.

I'M GONNA DO WHAT YOU DONE."

HE SAID, "I'LL SEE," BUT HE MADE ME THAT CANE.

MAN, I GOT THE FIRST TUNE... ♪ DO DO DO DO ♪ TILL I LEARNED.

I'M GONNA SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

[PLAYS BLUES MELODY] [BETTY WHISTLES MELODY] [PLAYS MELODY] [BETTY WHISTLES MELODY] [PLAYS MELODY] [BETTY WHISTLES MELODY] [PLAYING AND WHISTLING CONTINUES] BETTY: MMM!

MISTER ROGERS: BEAUTIFUL.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT WAS?

WHAT?

♪ YOU WORK ME ALL THE SUMMER ♪ ♪ AND ALL THE FALL ♪ ♪ I HAD TO TAKE CHRISTMAS IN MY OVERALLS ♪ ♪ AND NOW SHE GONE, AND I DON'T WORRY ♪ ♪ I'M SITTING ON TOP OF THE WORLD ♪ "SITTING ON TOP OF THE WORLD"!

WELL, YOU'RE HELPING US SIT ON TOP OF THE WORLD, MR. TURNER.

I WANT TO SAY HELLO TO MR. YOUNG.

HEY, MR. YOUNG.

ALL RIGHT.

HI.

YOU BEEN PLAYING THE DRUM A LONG TIME?

I BEEN PLAYING SINCE I WAS 11.

SINCE YOU WERE 11 YEARS OLD?

11 YEARS OLD.

DO YOU HAVE ANY CHILDREN?

GOT 14.

14 CHILDREN.

YEAH.

ARE THEY INTERESTED IN MUSIC?

ALL OF THEM.

EVERY ONE OF THEM.

ALL OF THEM ARE.

GOT 3 GRAND, AND THEY PLAY.

AND THEY PLAY, TOO.

YEAH.

BOY, THEY'RE LUCKY TO HAVE YOU FOR A DAD AND A GRANDDAD.

I'M GLAD TO KNOW YOU.

THAT HAS A BIG SOUND, DOESN'T IT?

COULD YOU JUST SHOW US HOW DEEP THAT SOUND IS WHEN YOU HIT IT?

[PLAYING LOW, LOUD SOUND] IT SURE IS.

KEEP ON.

THANK YOU, MR. YOUNG.

MISS HEMPHILL.

YEAH?

I REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU PLAY.

THAT--THAT HAS A LOT DIFFERENT SOUND FROM THAT DRUM, DOESN'T IT?

YEAH, AND WHAT MAKES THAT IS THESE LITTLE RATTLES BACK THERE.

AHA.

AND SEE, WHEN YOU HIT THE FRONT, IT RATTLES BACK THERE.

I SEE.

HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING SINCE YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL?

YEAH.

I BEEN PLAYING SINCE I WAS, UH, 9 YEARS OLD, PLAYING DRUMS, AND THE WAY I WOULD-- REALLY LEARNT WAS ON A PASTEBOARD BOX.

A PASTEBOARD BOX?

PASTEBOARD BOX.

I WOULD TURN IT UP AND LAY IT ON THE FLOOR AND BEAT IT WITH A SPOON AND A KNIFE, AND I CALLED THEM MY STICKS LIKE THIS NOW, AND I WOULD BEAT IT WITH THAT SPOON AND THE KNIFE... ♪ BOOM DIDDY BOOM DEE ♪ WITH MY GRANDDADDY... ♪ BOOM DIDDY BOOM ♪ AND THEN ONE DAY, HE WAS GONE, AND I TOOK THE DRUM AND SET IT UP IN THE CHAIR.

IT WAS A BIG DRUM.

ALL I COULD DO TO GET IT UP IN THE CHAIR.

I SET IT UP IN THE CHAIR AND PUT THE BIG DRUMSTICK ON.

I SAID, "IF I CAN DO IT ON THE PASTEBOARD BOX, I CAN DO IT ON THIS DRUM," AND I WENT TO HITTING THE DRUM AND HITTING THE DRUM.

THE STICK WOULD BOUNCE BACK, YOU KNOW, AND IT WOULDN'T GO BACK RIGHT, AND SO I KEPT ON DOING TILL I GOT MY LICKS RIGHT ON THERE, AND THEN I SHOWED IT TO MY GRANDDADDY WHEN HE CAME.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

HE WAS PROUD OF ME.

I WANTED TO MAKE HIM PROUD OF ME.

BUT YOU'VE BEEN PLAYING ALL OVER THE WORLD, HAVEN'T YOU?

ALL IN BERLIN AND GERMANY AND SWEDEN AND HARLEM AND WASHINGTON AND, UH, DELAWARE.

YOU'VE BEEN EVERYWHERE.

JUST TO BEEN TO NEW ORLEANS, AND I BEEN JUST ALL AROUND PLAYING.

YOU ENJOY IT?

YEAH, I ENJOY IT.

DO YOU?

I ENJOY IT.

DO YOU EVER GET NERVOUS WHEN YOU PLAY?

NO.

IT DON'T BOTHER ME A BIT BECAUSE EVER SINCE I WAS--WHEN I WAS TWO YEARS OLD, I USED TO DANCE, DANCE UP ONSTAGE, YOU KNOW.

MY GRANDDADDY CARRIED ME TO THEM DANCES, AND I WOULD GET UP ONSTAGE, AND HE SAID, "DON'T BE BASHFUL, BABY."

SAID, "DANCE FOR GRANDDADDY," AND, YOU KNOW, I LOVED HIM, SO I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO MAKE HIM HAPPY, AND SO I WOULD JUST DANCE DOWN.

WOULDN'T BE ASHAMED.

BE HAVING MY HANDS ON MY HIPS, LOOKING AT THE PEOPLES, YOU KNOW, AND THEY WOULD BE SO PROUD OF ME, ALL OF THE GROWNUPS, ABOUT ME BEING TWO YEARS OLD AND WASN'T ASHAMED OR BASHFUL OR NOTHING.

JUST I PUT MY HANDS ON MY HIPS AND JUST DANCED DOWN.

WELL, WHAT'S ONE SONG THAT YOU REMEMBER THAT YOU REALLY LOVED THAT YOUR GRANDDADDY HELPED YOU TO LEARN?

IT WAS, UM, "GLORY, GLORY, HALLELUJAH."

WOULD YOU PLAY IT FOR US?

YEAH.

WOULD YOU ALL BE ABLE TO DO THAT?

YEAH.

THANK YOU.

I'D LIKE TO HEAR IT.

BETTY: WE CAN WHISTLE.

WOULD YOU DO IT, MR. TURNER, "GLORY, GLORY"?

MM-HMM.

BETTY: OH, GOOD.

MISTER ROGERS: CAN WE WHISTLE, OR WHAT WILL WE DO WHEN WE LISTEN?

SING OR WHISTLE.

OK. YOU TEACH IT TO US, OK?

PLAY IT UP HERE?

SURE.

YEAH.

HERE WE GO.

I'LL GET BACK OUT FROM UNDER YOU THIS TIME.

YEAH.

HE WANTS TO... SHOW THE KIDS THIS SONG SO MAYBE THEY'LL LEARN IT AND BRING IT ON AFTER WE GONE.
