This piano page chronicles my pianistic redevelopment. As a pianist with rather invisible orthopedic and neurological special needs, my experience as a music teacher for special needs students is an ongoing inspiration. I have had to rehabilitate my fingers, shoulders, neck, lower back, concentration, memory, and more. Sitting is still uncomfortable and my playing continues to suffer at times in one way or another because of my disabilities. However, it will not stop me from trying again and again.

Rerecording certain pieces is an essential part of developing musically and technically.

None the less, music performance and interpretation are still a central part of my life. My students are a great inspiration for continuing on this path. Many of my students display patience, perseverence and creativity of expression. This page is dedicated to them.
