Hello All, my name is Dearl Smith (43) and I have lived in West Sacramento, CA for the past 25 years. I started playing the bass guitar in church, with no formal lessons, in January of 1988. I also greatly enjoy the piano, though I was never patient enough to play it with any skill.
This course has intrigued me and I have looked forward to taking it with some reservation... I can talk with the best, but typing it out is not as fun ... yes I know that dates me.
I anticipate learning about the art of music and how to express my thoughts and observations in a discussion board. I hope to join others in conversation and learn not only from the material but the shared content of my fellow classmates.
