My first thoughts turned to something I decided to do for myself this year. I’m constantly running around for my kids and my business so I felt like I was due for some me time. This past fall I decided to re-learn how to play the piano. When I was a kid I took a couple years worth of lessons and I certainly wasn’t a big fan of my teachers. Now I have a WONDERFUL teacher, Susan Yantis. She has been teaching my kids at our house for the past 3 years. Her style of teaching is MUCH more interesting for the ‘younger’ and just starting out. I found that learning to play the piano again has drawn out a lot more creativity within me.
I recorded myself playing a new piece I just learned called Gentle Rain… remember, I’m a photographer, not a music producer, or a pianist.
{A new window will open … you certainly don’t have to listen to the whole thing, but it’s about 2 min long.}
If you feel like it, leave me a comment and let me know what you think of my playing!
