I Play Music

i had lessons for 8 years. I have played in front of 350+ people when i was 4 years old at my piano teachers church at a christmas mass. we played a duet of silent night together. I started to write music when I was 13 and stopped suddenly - I now enjoy my keyboard and am starting to play again after all these years - . I have graduated from the English school of music - first grade (back when i was 10 years old). i love music and don't know why i stayed away so long. I have had friends who after talking me into jamming with them ask me to be in bands- . Anyway - i love to play music and listen to it.

In our day,we were trained in self-discipline by the training we received from our parents, pears and teachers. Nowadays, there little to no discipline in homes, schools or churches.
I have a natural ear for music and have played anything with a keyboard, beginning at age 12 or so with the accordion and a little cord organ I had. After playing by ear for several years, I began taking lessons from a schoolmate of mine but it didn't work out due to my ear picking up the tune,which would cause me to loose my concentration on the music notes before me.
I wish that I hadn't been given the gift so I could learn the notes and even write my own music. I have written a couple songs but only by memory.
Best of luck to you in your music.
