Apologies for the non-car related nature of this query but as there are a few of us on here with kids, it may of use.

Has anyone any recommendations on a piano teacher for a 7 year old (beginner)?

We are in the Ranches but happy to travel if they are good (or they can come to ours). I bought a full 88 key Clavinova so something half-decent for a beginner.

The (weak) link to PHers is that when we looked for a piano, in true PH style I decided that an all singing, all dancing one with proper keys and some hammer setup that mirrors a grand piano was the way to go. That is also had a control area like something from the shuttle (ooooh....lots of buttons and lights!) was a plus.

Of course, the more sensible wife thought that complete and utter overkill - she was right :-) Not that I had any choice of course and I just do what I am told.

Cheers

My Mrs sent the kids to the Music Chamber in Times Square Mall. Ours did Violin and Drums, but they do most instruments.

They seemed pretty good. But that was 3 years ago....

Hi

If you are able to send me any contacts that would be great. Have just been badly let down by where she has been going so keen to move to a private tutor ASAP

Thanks in advance!
