I started learning the piano when I was 31 years old. My inspiration for wanting to learn was watching the pianists in the gospel quartets from the 50s.
I had been wishing to play for several years but was put off as I thought my fingers were not long and slender enough; I also work shifts and I didn’t know if at my age I would be able to learn an instrument.
I came to Dr Spacie as a complete novice. Within the first 7 months of my taking up lessons, he arranged a hymn tune for me to play and sing to at my own wedding. And in a year of lessons, I took my Grade 1 London College of Music (awarded by the University of West London) Theory of Music exam and passed with 100 marks out of 100.
Dr Spacie is very patient and has an excellent ability to help you learn. He makes lessons fun and I find him to be flexible with my availability and approachable.
I would recommend him for anyone wishing to take lessons.
