I played classical piano for several years. My first teacher was elderly, but really knew how to teach...
she became ill with cancer and was quickly on her death bed. She managed to call my mom and begged her not to let me quit..."She has quite a bit of talent..."
I managed to play for a few more years, but lost interest...now the poor piano sit unused, and DH refuses to get rid of it..."It reminds me of what you used to do"
