HI, I AM INTO MY 70S NOW SO I AM OLD. I LEARNT TO THE PLAY THE PIANO AT AGE 11 BUT QUIT AT THE AGE OF 16. I ONLY GOT TO 5TH GRADE. AFTER QUITTING I ONLY PLAYED THE PIANO ON AND OFF OVER THE YEARS BUT FOR A LONG TIME I DIDNT PLAY IT AT ALL UNTIL I GOT INTO MY LATE 50S. IVE BEEN COMPOSING TUNES ON THE PIANO NOW SINCE AROUND 2015 BUT I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL. I HAVE NEVER SOLD ANY OF MY OWN COMPOSITIONS AS YET. I HAVE NEVER TRIED. OH WELL, MAYBE ONE DAY IF I LIVE LONG ENOUGH HA HA. I AM VERY OLD FASHIONED, I ENJOY OPERA AND CLASSICAL PIANO. I ALSO ENJOY SINGERS FROM THE 1940S, 50S, 60S AND 70S. BUT I DO HAVE A SOFT SPOT FOR KATIE MELUA, SHE IS GREAT.
