Caretakers’ Cabin
HERE AT THE CARETAKERS’ CABIN AT THE CHURCH ‘O THE PINES, also known as the Log Cabin Piano Studio, things carry on. But the details are a bit different. Kathy is still teaching her students, but via FaceTime on the iPad. Right now, Elsa is playing Ode To Joy very beautifully, from her own house. Sometimes Kathy notices a little something with a student that needs attention and explains and demonstrates on the grand old Steinway here. So it is different—but the same. And a part of the structure of students’ lives is maintained in an important way, with face to face, ear to ear contact with their teacher. I am proud of the students. And the teacher. And all of the committed and creative folks who are finding ways to keep the world spinning, and the music playing.
