new years resolution

[joseph]

I think my new years resolution should be to give up the piano, give up piano teaching, and go in to a job that actually pays decent money.

[Feg]

Mine is to actually PLAY my piano more this year - oh, and to tune it for the first time in ** years

So am I, and my piano's been restrung. And you should HEAR it...or perhaps not. My resolution is to tune the b****r tomorrow. Sigh...

[Feg]

I know, I know but..................

'tis always the last thing I want to do of an evening and weekends are for the family/kids/husband-sort of thing.

new years resolutions:

Get a job ( if anyone will employ me )

Pass grade 1 !

Try to get my dad to like listening to Chopin...

I tried him with the balades and he didn't even like those!
'Its very piano' he said or: 'its very thumpy'. Chopin Thumpy!?, and I heard his music should be anything but thumpy!

When (if) I get a job, buy my upright!

[Gill the Piano]

Pass me the halo polish, somebody; piano at concert pitch (much to both our relief) and...DUSTED!

[Barrie Heaton]

Pass me the halo polish, somebody; piano at concert pitch (much to both our relief) and...DUSTED!

And out of tune again after this cold snap


Did the piano turn out like you hoped then with the restring

[Gill the Piano]

Odd bit of falseness here and there, but that'll probably play out (now I've got a bit of time to actually PLAY it) and it had some rogue beats before anyway. Few sticky notes - because they've been rebushed and I haven't played it enough! But no, I'm very pleased, Apart from the G below middle C that went walkies overnight and now means I have to move 3 cwt of music, papers, books, cats, lights, busts (Beethoven & Mozart, not mine...), and general detritus...

Be more sensible and less paranoid. I can't promise I can do it though. Ha !
