No Talent!

The parent has been taught the 5th piece during the last lesson... which also means half the class (there are now 4 students left) will be able to play it this saturday. I skipped teaching him piece #2, as suggested by the teacher so that he can 'catch up' and, playing along the same line, I have decided to skip piece #4.

Now, I've been trying to teach him to play the 1st phrase of piece #5 for the last 3 days. Sadly, he just doesn't get it!!! This boy has no sense of rhythm or tone and definitely does not commit scores to memory easily.

I should just relax... I think I still have another bottle of Hoegaarden in the fridge left, courtesy of YL. Right, I'm off to get it. Cheers!
