Bach didn't beat me - I got a distinction in my grade 8 piano exam!!

Anyone like to congratulate me? Feeling very proud of myself today, so you'll have to mind yourself there as my head swells accordingly. Bring on the diploma in September.

Oo well done you and your tinkly fingers!

Blardy good show multitasker. I'm sure you have marvellous fingering

Impressive!!

Congratulations. Take a bow.

Well done!

Started to teach dd1 last year and she did her first exam too and got a distinction so we are going to have to break out and celebrate with the help of mister Cadbury soon. Mind you teaching your own child is far from a picnic but worth it anyway!
Thanks guys.

Wow! Well done. Wish I had kept it up. My DS1 has just taken his grade 1, still waiting for result - I was a nervous wreck on his behalf, how on earth did you keep yourself calm enough to play??

oh multitasker that is SO impressive! I think piano might just be the hardest instrument (although come to think of it organists are a breed apart).

Well done you!

Oh fantastic achievement!!! Well done you!!!!!

Yeah the nerves are a killer - my erm, constitution was in overdrive that morning... and you just can't give a convincing performance with shaky hands, but I had the same examiner this year as last year and remembered she was very patient and supportive - I guess they do want you to do what you are capable of. Have a few pupils now so I'm putting what I know to good use and getting some pocket money too
