Hello Megan,
You’re welcome and thank you! I appreciate your thoughts on my post and I’m glad to hear it may have been helpful to you with your presentation.
In general, people tend to overlook all of the benefits that they receive from music. I’m glad to hear that this post has prompted you to appreciate that.

To Mr.DAVID AHRENS,I would like to say thank you for writing this article. I have to do a presentation on what something has taught me and how it relates to the big picture. Having played piano my entire life, i found this article to be perfect for ideas on what to talk about for my project. It also really made me think about piano playing and all that it has done for me.
Thanks so much! Megan

Your welcome, and thank you! I thought it might make it a bit more interesting to get some context on the submitters.

Thanks, Great Job on this post/collection/carnival. I especially like how you included a brief bio blurb on each submitter… I think I’ll ask folks to continue the tradition in the future.

Comment on Tuba Q and A: High Range by Dave

Dave — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 01:49:00 +0000

A high school tubist should be able to play a wider range than G to F, I’ve been playing for a year (Granted I’m in high school but I just switched a year ago) and I can play pedal tones and almost up to a B that sits on top of the staff. The B isn’t quite a clear note yet, but it’s getting there.
