I particularly hate trying to learn things that I played on the
piano when I was about 10 years old.. Wish I had teacher or a method that
would steer me to new musicl concepts instead of having to relearn old
warhorses. I have been enjoying Scottish and Irish music as an antidote
to this and some Kim Robertson new age-y stuff.. but find it an ongoing
problem for me.
