Student Spotlight!
Steven Johnson is 13 years old.
He has been taking piano lessons at Music of the Bay for 6 years. Besides piano, Steven enjoys playing 3rd base for Bourne Babe Ruth Baseball. Like most kids these days, Steven likes video games, especially Fortnite.
Steven began piano lessons with Brian Applebee at Music of the Bay and quickly advanced. He has studied with Michelle Bowlin ever since.
Steven’s favorite piece played so far is Pachelbel’s Canon in D. Why? The song has a predictable left-hand pattern throughout, making it easier to play and memorize.
The least favorite piece Steven has ever played? Bach Invention 8. He disliked the sound of it. Steven says I’d didn’t have enough of a melody. The entire piece was predictable and too repetitive for his liking.
Steven looks forward to playing piano and clarinet for the foreseeable future. He would like to attend Massachusetts Maritime Academy and major in Biology.
