I picked up the Brown Scale Book from a music centre here in PA. I went through all the scales, chords, and arpeggios and I can’t believe how rusty I have become. Took out the old Royal Conservatory 7/8 books and surprisingly I still remember a lot of the songs, which is a good thing because that means I still possess the talent for reading music. Which no one should knock because it’s very tricky….
So my goal is to eventually write all my tests and become a certified piano teacher. I imagine this will take a few years because I don’t have a whole lot of time to devote to playing, but I’ll be spending more time at mom and dad’s because that’s where the piano is. Kind of a double-edged sword because the piano is out of tune, but I’ll get to visit more often. I guess I should take into consideration that my dad is STILL easily irritated by the piano. Oh well…for all intents and purposes, the nut definitely did not fall far from the tree.
