Enthusiasm for playing inspired by Zak. Guy
Very impressed by ability of teacher to get us playing tunes very quickly and in considerable variety. I am very un-musical but with a lot of practice I think I might learn to play even a little bit, which is something I wouldn't have thought possible before I started. Richard
