Some great reasons to make 2017 the "Year of the Piano"
- Joy, as in the joy of making music with your own hands.
- Fun, playing duets with friends is a blast.
- Challenge, to play well is not easy, but it is possible.
- Bucketlist, one more check.
- Health, get the brain active and firing on all cylindars. Apparently music helps.
- Piano lessons have changed since you were a kid. Students here have tried their hands at these activities:
