I have restructured my time and actually have time to devote to music again.
My mother was a music teacher and we all had a good musical education. I did Gr 8 in music theory and three other instruments ... but 30 years ago.
I can still read music, play the piano (ish) and play the treble recorder, probably Gr 5-6 stuff on the treble but not up to that standard on the piano.
I have my first piano lesson today with my daughters teacher (fantastic lady - retired Professor of Music) and have booked a couple of recorder lessons with someone who specialised in it at RCM.
I have been looking at exams and thought I would aim to re-take Gr 6 in the spring (prob MT and TR with piano later next year).
Has anyone done this sort of thing? Not entirely sure why I want to do the exams again apart from thinking that I might aim for a Diploma before I am 50 (four years time).
