>>How long will it take me to play a piece all the way through without having to stop for a rest after each phrase?<<

Oh, my goodness, Sarah!

So much depends on so many variables, that it would be impossible to say!

I was up to slaughtering Christmas carols after about four months. It took at least another year for me to be secure on all the basic notes, all the time.

I am glad to know that you have gotten yourself to a teacher. That will greatly improve your chances of getting where you want to be in good time.

There are many like you on this board, who re-began their instrument after many years, or who started much later in life. This has been a great place to find out things and ask questions. Glad you found it!

Susan
