Am I right from reading the comments she started piano at 17? (Havent had chance to watch the slog yet but will later). She said before she gave up learning to play piano to learn to drive and I'm pretty sure she was driving at about 18, so she was playing piano a year and got to grade 4 within a year?! I'm no expert but my friend plays violin professionally and a few years ago started learning to play piano, it has taken her a couple of years to get to grade 4, and this is someone that is a musician and has always played other instruments, so I find it hard to believe brogie got to grade 4 in a year? Are there any pianists here to explain how long it would take someone to go up a grade? I know it varies person to person, I just find it hard to believe brogan actually did play at grade 4 because she cant read music now?
