Tell us about a talent you’d love to have… but don’t.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I played the trumpet through my school years. I could read music, but not the notes so well as to the length to hold them. I was a fair player once I learned the tune.
But what I dreamed of doing is playing the piano. I watched my friends and relatives who played and of course I loved the music coming out of it. I taught myself how to play the top melody with the right hand and it sounded pretty good, but I had no teacher so I slowly played with the right hand and brought in the left hand after working on trying to play it. I managed to play some simple songs with both hands. I was happy. And it was all the sweeter since I taught myself.

That’s wonderful that you taught yourself to play the piano. I have tried teaching myself. Was not successful.

Believe me it was very simple songs and I doubt I could do it today, but then again I don’t have a piano to try it.
