ATTENTION ASPIRING PIANISTS!!!
I am a professional musician and am keen to use my expertise to offer an opportunity to someone who wouldn't otherwise be able to pursue a love, and talent for, playing the piano. I have many pupils, but this would be an opportunity for one person to essentially have all they would need to support them in developing their skills as a pianist. I will provide the lessons, but you will need to bring the enthusiasm and desire to develop and use your skills to make a difference, by entertaining and using music to make the world a bit brighter, in a way that suits your skills and personal ambition.
So what is being offered is a bit like a scholarship for one person aged from 7 upwards (children and adults equally welcome!) who will attend a weekly lesson with me for three months, for free.
The recipient of this will be selected by a friendly community panel.
To register an interest you need to submit a letter to [email protected]
www.shadeblack.co.uk
explaining why you believe you (or the person/child you are nominating) would be a suitable recipient, why they need this opportunity, and what they hope to use their increased skills and expertise for (even if this is a really long-term goal.)
My main goal is to keep music alive and accessible, so please give this some thought!
Closing date to register an interest is: 31st August 2021.

I am incredibly happy to announce that as things have eased since the initial lockdown that I am now opening back up to teach. For anyone who comes to me there is the option of coming inside to the grand piano or sitting outside with the electronic piano. Both cleaned before and after. For those who I come to your home, I can start as soon as you're ready.
Obviously this is for everyone who feels comfortable with this.
Hope to see you all soon and I'm looking forward to seeing all the new pupils soon x

En route to Heath Street Methodist Church in Golborne. I walked past St Peter's school whilst the children were out playing. Was startled to hear my name being shouted and to look and see a group of children all shouting my name and waving. The best things in life truly are unexpected and free 🙂 ###

Well what a fantastic rehearsal tonight from Wargrave Community Choir. Despite our usual practice place having a gas leak, and the rush to find a place to sing at such short notice, you all did a fantastic job and the sound you made was fantastic. This concert will be awesome and you will blow the happy couple away singing at their wedding on Saturday ###
