Re: Week 2 Thread: The Era of Haydn and Mozart! @Juan Carlos Olite You are right! It is NEVER too late! I started cello at 14 and enjoyed playing all through school.

Re: J.S. Bach - 2 part inventions group @Natalie Peh I can't wait to hear you! Are you going to learn the first 2 inventions? I'm going to start with d minor, just because I liked Magdalena's lesson about it.

Re: J.S. Bach - 2 part inventions group @Vidhya Bashyam Thank you! I'll check it out, too. I'm going to start with the d minor one first, though, because I liked Magdalena's lesson about it.

Re: J.S. Bach - 2 part inventions group @Parag Mehta The house prices in Florida are INSANE! No one can afford to buy a house now, and even the rents have increased by 1/3. Is it the same in the Netherlands now, too?

Re: Week 2 Thread: The Era of Haydn and Mozart! @Antonella Di Giulio So true! I started on violin, and that just never really interested me. But when I started piano, THAT was really cool. And I liked cello because I could play with my friends at…

Re: Week 2 Thread: The Era of Haydn and Mozart! @Susan Rogers Yup, we REALLY need to drill those scales to make them part of us. As a kid in the summers, I would actually put a book on the music stand and read something while I played scales.…

Re: Week 2 Thread: The Era of Haydn and Mozart! @Antonella Di Giulio I love your idea of singing the phrases without the piano. When I was traveling for work all the time, that was how I could "practice" a bit without a piano!

Re: Week 2 Thread: The Era of Haydn and Mozart! @Antonella Di Giulio Molto grazie! I practiced a great deal when I was growing up, then other things (life!) got in the way. It's so nice to return to something I enjoyed so much as a kid.

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

I'm so excited to meet other pianists from all around the globe.
