Life is full of lessons, if you can see them? Sometimes, things that present themselves as problems, have ended up being my greatest learning lessons. Hence the name of this piece. Often when improvising on the piano, I am thinking of something that has happened to me during that day or week & that seems to influence the outcome of the musical piece. Don't ask me to explain why, because I can't! It's just one of life's mysteries, but a happy one in my case. When music starts flowing, it's like a tap that can't be turned off. I hope this gives you inspiration to see the good in some of the crises you may be going through?

Lessons

I started off learning piano at around 6 years old, but only realised my ear for music when I could pick out melodies I heard on the radio & from then on I started writing my own music & playing long into the night, to the point where my parents told me to stop so they could go to sleep!
In my teenage years I joined bands & learnt basically on the fly how to work as a group. Once I realised that keyboards were not as portable & able to be played on beaches / around campfires, I taught myself guitar. By adding drums, harmonica & bass to my arsenal, the stage was set for a fully working band to record in my garage. Since setting up my home studio, I love recording a tune each week & especially love collaborating with all the extremely talented musicians on soundcloud. I'm a full time musician, with many different hats in the music community. Including songwriter, composer, live musician & blog writer.
