Ah, yes…that strange “global warming guilty t-shirt weather” hits me today as I think about summer.

This summer we will have a two-month hiatus from regular lesson schedules, again matching the Boston Public School calendar. But we won’t be without opportunities to meet and make music at the Piano Bar! I encourage you to consider music training as something more akin to keeping up reading during summer weeks, rather than a seasonal event which stops cold until fall. I am completely biased as their music teacher who wants to engage their potential, of course. I recommend we try to keep up lessons as much as summer travel or family events allow.

In the mid-spring, I’ll open up first-come, first-served lesson slots for July and August. Most likely they will fall the weeks of July 11, July 18, August 1, August 8, and August 15. This will allow your family to pick and choose whatever specific dates your son or daughter can have lessons. They’ll be pay-by-lesson, and kept open all summer for you to sign up.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled winter. Or, our global-warming scheduled t-shirt day.
