    Hmm...as far as reading piano music is concerned, I'd suggest that you read hymns. Honestly---my first thoughts were probably the same as your when I heard the words, 'Read hymns.' But the reality is that it works----hymns are a very good practice when it comes to sight reading. Of course, unless you happen to be a musical mastermind, reading hymns in five days won't turn you into Mozart. But a little each day helps!

    I would never discourage education. But, it sounds as if you have what you need already. What are you proposing to learn? Music theory? Nobody today except in classical music reads notes or sheet music.

    Computers are a great help if you want to staff your work.. but I guess I don't know what you're thinking you have left to learn? Do you want to play classics?

    I've composed a lot of music and written a lot of songs, but I can't write musical notation. I wish I could.

    Really? I just didn't want to get there and them be like okay.. now you have to learn about piano music.. even though I can play anything on it! I will probably go for composition.. but either way I have to learn to read piano music. It SUCKS. I hate it. :)

    One of my sons is about your age. He just graduated with a degree in Classical Music Performance. He sounds just like you...sax, flute, clarinet, piano, composer. He learned soooo much in those 4 years, yet loved every minute.



    Go for it!

    Yeah. You're probably right. I need structure. --

    Going to school to study music would give you structure and a accountability. With all your knowledge you would do great!

    What's keeping you from doing it? Sounds like you have a lot of talent.
