Alex first met David in 2006Today Alex had the best piano lesson ever. He had a 1 hour private lesson with Grammy Award nominated artist David Lanz! Alex has been playing music composed by David Lanz for several years. (Behind the Waterfall - grandma's favorite!, Cristofori's Dream, A Path With Heart). He's also met David at several concerts and special workshops given by our old piano teacher. David rarely does private lessons, though, so it was quite an honor to be given a personal lesson, right in David's home! Alex played his two current compositions and was given tips by David for some improvements. He told David that he wants to incorporate Jazz into his compositions, so they worked on that as well. David also gave him tips for relaxing during performances. One of my favorite parts was when David said Alex has a gift for music and that he should always strive to use his gift to make the world a better place.
Alex's task for the next few months is to work on compositions and techniques, so that we can arrange a second lesson with David. Amazing!
