Cam’s first piano lesson July 24th, 2008

I was surprised with Cameron’s first piano lesson, He was so excellent for the first time, his teacher said, he was very good. From right hand position (I been taught him haha) and read an easy c mayor notes for his left hand He got his first piano book to practice his theory and songs.

He need to practice more on his left hand. Next week he need to bring a sample of song that he like for his teacher to teach him how to play it on the piano and he choose to bring the “BICYCLE RACE” song by Queen :P (the sample can be on the cd)

At the moment we got the keyboard at home, its a decent yamaha keyboard which have everything,but I still prefer maybe in future we have a digital piano too.

Maybe like this, just simple digital piano.

PS:By the way sayang.. maybe in the future Cam can play the piano, Tom play the guitar and I sing???? :D
