Re: DOW: What's the most memorable feedback you've received about your playing?
@Caroline When we moved back to NYC, I had to give my baby grand back to my mom (no space!) and I eventually got a nice digital keyboard with headphones!

@Caroline Ooooh, you are so lucky, Caroline! I had a neighbor under my apartment who would bang on the ceiling with a broom if I practiced after dinner.

@Monika Tusnady (a) you are NOT old, even though Henry could be your son, and (b) we are ALL soooo proud of the hard work and beautiful achievements you've mastered in such a short time!

@Monika Tusnady He was actually a rather mean guy! He had a scary reputation, LOL, so even MY teacher wasn't really friendly with him.

@Vidhya Bashyam I figured that since I wasn't planning to be a professional, it didn't matter much. But MY teacher was rather upset!

When I was 15 I played for my teacher’s teacher. This gentleman said that my hands were too small and I shouldn’t continue with piano at all but may harpsichord would be OK.

My favorite activity is chamber music, but I love learning solo repertoire now here at Tonebase.
