Hi Rebecca, I've paid this and I added £22.50 so the total for Ron on this item is now £52.50 (for Tan and Ron's records). I'll PM you to arrange how we might do this in the New Year.

Looking forward to understanding Schoenberg  :Crazy:

Of course, when I amalgamated my bids, I should have added the two together  :doh: to be fair (this has only just occurred to me) so I'll up this to £30...

Well I reckon where there's a will, there's always a way so I'll start the bidding off at £10   :shy:

I'm bidding on the music theory lessons option. If you can explain why atonal music is worth listening to (and I'm fully prepared to accept that it must be) it'll be well worth quite a lot of money  ;)

I wouldn't be confident of doing a good enough job like that, Christine, but I'd certainly have a go if someone wanted me to!

Rebecca, this may be a really daft question as I don't know what's involved, but would the music theory lessons be something that could be done as distance learning? Or would you have to be with the student to play him/her music? If it could be done remotely, I'll bid for it because I love music and am woefully ignorant in the theory department  :-:

Hokay.

Winning bidder pays Ron. Just like if it was an actual physical item. I think. Does that make sense?  :-:

How it works: you bid for this, highest bidder pays Ron, I provide lesson. Just like it were a cake or a wiggly waggler or whatever else. :innocent:

Give your cat something to sing along with!

Ideal starter-offer present for a small kid. Would cost at least £40 from a teacher of my experience normally.

Greater Manchester - instrument and music provided.

You can have your lesson at my house in Withington or I can travel to you, depending on access. If you come here you get a cup of tea (squash!) and a biscuit into the bargain  :tea:

 :thanks: Christine for the idea!
