Here we share two students of music – Julia, age 8, and her brother George, age 17. George was featured in our first set of posts, back in 2020, when we spent some time with George celebrating Beethoven. This year, he is studying at university, and his sister is following in his footsteps, also learning her way around the keyboard.
