I'm A Grownup!

I have a Steinway Model A that was built around 1913. I have had this piano since I was 14 years old. I had a regular wooden bench with music storage inside for a number of years. When it finally gave out from overuse, Daddy found an antique piano stool to match the piano. It was rickety, but it served the purpose, and I've been using it for over 35 years.

When the movers unpacked my belongings, the stool ended up in the farthest possible corner of the storage unit, and we've been making do with a dining chair ever since.

But yesterday we took delivery of a real piano bench. I feel like a grownup. Instead of making do with a rickety old piano stool, we have a real, high quality, professional piano bench.

It's about time!
