<DIV>Hello list,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Does anyone know the average price for beginning piano lessons in the
Wilmington, DE area? Here in the Midwest, it's about $10 for a
half-hour lesson, but I figure everything costs a little more on the east
coast. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am asking on behalf of my brother who has just
acquired a Gulbransen spinet (free). He also needs a
technician; would anyone here care to take on the job? I have not seen
the piano, so I've no idea what kind of shape it's in.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Arial Narrow">I can't believe anyone is still charging $10
for a half-hour lesson, even if they're still in high school. Here in
Denver, I doubt if anybody charges less than $25. I paid a university
professor cellist $45 for an hour lesson about 15 years
ago. </FONT></DIV>
