Piano Lesson: I started lessons when I was 4 years old. I had lessons for 10 years. I played few concerts and it was really fun. So I can read music really quickly and I know how to compose on the keyboard. I stopped the lessons to keep going on my own with mostly blues and classical music.
Guitar Lesson: I started my lessons when I was 15 years old and I took them for 4 years. I played a lot on my acoustic guitar to start and them I started learning blues and rock on my electric guitar playing the lead. I learned my scales and my technics to write my own lead and rhythm guitars.
Singing Lesson: I started the lesson when I was 16 years old and it only last 2 years. I knew the drill now and I felt I was ready on my own. I worked a lot on my voice to give it some texture and I still do my basic exercises everyday. I now write my own lyrics and sings Classic Rock and Blues mostly.
Other Lesson: I played trumpet at school for 5 years in high school. I know intermediate songs and I have some technics. I also played the Xylophone for 4 years in Elementary school as well. Also for 5 years, I have been writing my own songs: lyrics and music. It's mostly rock and blues music.
