My First Piano Teacher: Matthew Hand

I took piano from Matthew Hand of Fort Pierce, Florida for a little over one year. He taught me my first Mozart, Bach, and Grieg pieces. Mr. Matthew, as I called him, is an expert in the Middle East. He was also an expert in being very patient as you can see from this video. We had some scheduling conflicts that caused me to have to change teachers but I will always remember the things he taught me.

Oh My God, the first song that you were playing on the video, was the first song I learned to play before I do piano lessons. I remember that my mother could not pay the lessons for me, so I got a keyboard and listened each note of this music to play on keyboard until I get every part of it. First the right hand, then the left one. *-* What a emotion, I had forgotten that. And now i think that i can´t do anything on piano. You brought me many memories. Thank you. =)

Sorry my english.

talented little fellow(but a little stubborn!)

What teacher do you have now?

[josycal]

Thanks. I am not as emotional during piano lessons anymore. I grew up a little bit. For the last year I have had a new teacher, Tetyana Kuliush from the Kiev Conservatory of Music. I'll post some highlights from my year with her soon.
