 Re: Best advice/worst advice

One piano teacher did ask if I would not perhaps be more interested in playing sports.

I was a pretty miserable classical piano student I will admit, but avid about jazz piano and just could not find a teacher doing that during junior high school days.

Between then and graduate school when I finally had a great jazz piano teacher, I tortured many piano teachers, literally bringing one to tears.
(But that is another story...)

Fortunately, I always took classical oboe seriously and for my jazz interests with oboe found other ways to satify my curiosity.... listening to good jazz sax, Paul McCandless, etc.

At least I think I never made an oboe teacher cry.
