Every single rule has an exception and I am it, as I have shared my experiences on there before. However I have to disagree with you Mel on the ‘it’s never too late to learn piano’ popular criteria. Banning Radio 1 and the Thingummybob Factor from the house would also help!!!!! Then when he or she starts piano lessons, it would be more of an enjoyment and less of a chore for them. I think it may help a young child if before the age of 7 or 8 he or she learns to enjoy and love simple pieces of classical music, such as Sorcerers Apprentice, Debussy’s Cakewalk, Hall of the Mountain Kings, Britten’s YPGTTO and even the kids BBC Proms and (from my childhood) Atarahs band kit!! Also access to a toy piano, like the sort of things on sale in the toy department of John Lewis would be a good introduction to the joys of making music.
