Shannon's piano
Shannon has been playing piano for about 6 months now I think - time flies so fast that I cannot seem to keep track.
Anyhow, she's has the fever - a good one - and she's really into daily practice, playing till she gets it right and just improving herself. She's gone through half of the Suzuki Vol 1 piano book and I think she will finish it by the middle of this year.
Nigel used to be just as enthusiastic when he started and almost as quick, but he's slowed down recently and it has become rather frustrating getting him to practice. I'm not sure if it's a boy thing or just him being tired of the routine. His exam is coming up in July, and that means more of me kicking his butt to get him to play.
But Shannon keeps powering on - I'll upload a video of her playing soon. I have a feeling one day in the not too distant future, she will overtake Nigel. Not sure if that's good or bad though.
