Hei Michael,
You certainly couldn't ask for a better role model! I know what you meant and your enthusiam is refreshing. Sometimes we tend to get a bit stodgy here,LOL!
I, too, remember when I was in High school, (long ago!) listening to to Bach and getting crap from my friends about it. I didn't play piano, my instrument was, (and is) classical guitar. Classical, _not_ flamenco (lots of folks get the two mixed up). I specialized in music from the Baroque era. Now I'm learning to play 10 string kantele, (a sort of Finnish harp). After being immersed in reading the Kalavala, I _had_ to learn kantele! It's interesting how one thing leads to another, to another and so on.
Keep your passion and enthusiasm,
Evalynne
