music lessons, things were diff

me to the bench and lock the
parlor doors to force me to prac-

peggios, scales, and diminished
sevenths and, believe me, they
get pretty monotonous after five
or six years. My teacher at this
period was of the old school; her
name was Mrs. Sidman and she
was an accomplished musician
herself and could never under
stand why I couldn't be one too.
She was close to eighty and as
