Thanks to everyone who set goals or interacted in the forum in January and entered our giveaway!

Today we are happy to announce the three winners, in no particular order: congratulations to Charlie, Becca, and Eileen!

We have notified the three winners by email. 

It's not too late to set goals, ever, of course!

If you'd like to use the goal-setting tool on Lessonface to keep track of your goals, first sign in to Lessonface (registration is totally free), and go to the green menu, then Profile, and Goals. 

Lessonface Presents Rebecca Foon, Wolf Eyes, and Michael Attias! Lessonface Presents are open conversations with accomplished artists, which we broadcast live from the Lessonface studio in NYC. We started this line of programming this fall, under the name Face the Music, and are continuing to build on the concept in 2019.

We are excited to announce these upcoming interviews:
Watch them on this page, or click the links and sign up for free to get access to the recording after.

It's that time of year again!  As holiday festivities wind down and the new year is upon us, it's a great time to step back and reflect on your progress in 2018.  Did you articulate some concrete musical objectives at the beginning of last year?  Which of them did you accomplish?  If you fell short of some goals, do you know why you didn't meet them?  Learn from both your successes and failures, and articulate some fresh aims for the new year.  Be sure to make your 2019 resolutions specific, measurable, and achievable. 

It would be lovely if progress were a smooth upward incline from playing our awkward first notes to maturing into a skilled, expressive musician.  It would be great to finish each practice session playing everything better, and if, signing in to each lesson, we were confident in having advanced since the last class.  However, musical growth doesn’t happen in a smooth easy line.  We have our leaps and bounds forwards, but we also have setbacks, plateaus, and sometimes feel our playing has worsened.
