shhhhh. You said the quiet part out loud! Much had to do with my mom who decided to take lessons along aide me and she did way way better much faster. She had played Flute, oboe, saxophone. She knew how to read sheet music so all she had to do was adapt. Mean time here I am getting all frustrated because I was six and did not understand why I was not getting it and she was. No one explained it to me. My frustration got the better of me and ... well it was history. Forward to now and I have a much different look at things. I could probably find a way to play if I want to now... however at this point I like the tin whistle okay.... would like to really learn the bodhran drum.
Have a sunshine type of day!
