I am happy to be moving on in my life, but sad to leave such great people...my students have all come a long way since we've started. The Vogel kids, Zach and Evan, even have their own band called the Diesel Pigeons (www.myspace.com/dieselpigeons). They have great spirit and I believe they can take it all the way if they really practice and work hard enough.
That is just one example of how interesting it gets as a teacher, and I love it. I love to see these kids grow and flower into good musicians. Keep Practicing!!!
