I used to play piano very beautiful when I was 7, but due to study pressure and family life I had to leave my passion. I found my friend's paino in his house (as I'm staying with him for few days) and this is the chance I can re-live my childhood days again. Motivational Speaker

You`ll enjoy recording I`m sure. It`s a great way to iron out mistakes . . . ! Have fun! "I am not a man. I am a free number" ""

There are lots of stories similar to yours from participants here. The best motivation for practice and improving that I have ever come across is ... THIS FORUM. Get involved and stick around. It is a fabulous past time.
