Giulio Cinelli from Pianosolo.it guides us through this classic topic. Read more

Hi everyone. Since I'm new here, thought I would intro myself. I am a 53 yr old young person who has decided to enter the piano world again! My long term goal is to become a piano teacher myself someday, but for now, practicing on 4 pieces of music is all I can handle. I finally found an awesome teacher who really knows her stuff and I couldn't be happier! I could go on and on, but I won't bore you. Just wanted to introduce myself.

Welcome to the Forum. I too returned to the piano at 43, some 14 years ago. I have recently retired (a year ago) and have become a piano teacher, which I am enjoying thoroughly.

You will find many knowledgeable and helpful people here, so post away.

Cheers
