Personal Statement For Piano

Personal Statement I was first presented to the piano by my neighbor who had an old player piano in her basement. I was very young and was so highly amused by this instrument and started to play on it. Immediately, I liked the touch and the sounds that came out and was attracted to the piano. My first teacher in Louisiana was Iva Gunness. She introduced me to piano instructions during my kindergarten and 1st grade years. She was really strict on me, and the most vivid memory I have of her is when she would get angry if I dropped a nickel off my wrist playing scales. I enjoyed her presence and learned a lot from her. After I moved to Colorado, I continued my studies with Michelle Baker. Michelle Baker began given me 30 minute lessons each
