Learn in Faith, Serve with Love

Last night, I began my very FIRST keyboard lesson at Faith Music Centre.

It is something I always wanted to do but somehow got delayed by one reason or another. (Time schedule clashes, miscomm etc...) so I am glad to have finally gotten started.
First lesson was pretty basic; we spent the whole hour learning fingering techniques. Right hand scale up, left hand scale up and both hands scale up than its followed by right hand scale down, left hand scale down and both hand scale down…
It really requires a fair bit of coordination and lots of practice

Why do I learn the keyboard?
1. It is something I really like. I am always very impressed by those that can play nice music on the piano, keyboard and I love listening to music ( Kevin Kern, Richard Clayderman etc )
2. At $230 for 10 lessons, it is fairly affordable
3. It is near to my house
4. Wifey’s encouragement.
5. I want to learn a new way to worship and help others to worship in a group setting subsequently.
6. A good leader should be a lifelong learner.
7. No one will laugh at me… ;o)

Haha I included the last point because I am pretty sure that the environment is quite a relaxed one with people of all ages and no music background coming together to learn, which is a major plus point for people who may feel shy about learning music at an older age.

I hope I can learn well for the subsequent lessons to grasp a solid foundation of the keyboard.
* Thanks wifey for accompanying me for the first lesson!
