My First Lesson

Well I just got back from my first cello lesson.  I've been practicing every day since I got my cello on Christmas day.  I've been using my kids old Suzuki book and my daughter has also been coaching me.  She's been playing cello for more than eleven years now.  However, I knew that I really needed formal lesson if I was to progress like I wanted to.  So Last week I called my daughter's cello teaching and she had an opening so I've become her latest student.  The lesson went well.  She was please that I could already play a bit.  I guess the daily practice has paid off.  She also said, "I like the sound of that cello."  So I guess my daughter did a good job picking it out for me.  I got myself a present as well.  I ordered a tuner from amazon.com  and it came to day. I took a picture of it as shown above.  We actually already have a couple of tuners.  My daughter the cellist has one as does my son the trombonist.  I have been using theirs but I'm sure there will be times that I will need a tuner and theirs will not be available so I now have one of my own.  For about the past year, I've really wanted to learn to play the cello and now I'm on my way!!!
