Piano Lessons



Mr. Buckmaster demonstrates the new song for Holly to learn.

Holly had been plunking out some songs on the electric keyboard we have, teaching herself to play. Finally we asked if she would want real lessons. She did, and after prayer and inquiries we found Philip Buckmaster, a Baroque musician who lives in the area. She has been going weekly and has been learning steadily. She practices at home and also at the school we meet at on Sundays. The grand piano at Whitton School gives her a taste of playing with weighted keys. Some day we hope to get a keyboard with a piano action so her practicing will be more strengthening. For right now, what we have works.
