Tune Me up Thursday's
Instead of Tweet Me Thursday's, I decided that posting great tunes would be more beneficial. As music is one of my first loves, I thought I would bring you my diverse playlist to drive to, workout to, dance to, etc. A brief history of my music career (if you can call it that):
- Started playing the Simpsons theme song by ear on my mini keyboard. My parents' immediately put me into piano lessons.
- Started taking lessons at the age of 9 and quit at the age of 15.
- I made it to Grade 7 Royal Conservatory of Music. Could've gone to Grade 8 to gain an extra credit in high school, but since I was taking music already, I decided to quit. The music was getting a little too boring. I wanted to play pop songs, but when enrolled in RCM, you have to play what's in the books.
- When I was in Grade 7 (age 12) I wanted to play the saxoophone. My parents' rented one for me and then purchased one once I took an interest.
- My elementary school didn't have a band so I took lessons and auditioned for the Concert Bands at Markville High School and Brother Andre.
- I chose BA as I figured, if I was going to attend there, I may as well get used to the conductors.
- In Grade 7, I had the opportunity to attend an arts school in the city by audition only. I got in for saxophone. I only attended for Grade 8.
- In grade 9 I went back to BA to begin high school.
- From there, I took music every year and played in the concert band. Band gave the opportunity to travel to Washington D.C. and Chicago; both amazing cities!
