Because he showed a great interest in music very early, he enrolled m piano classes the summer before his first grade year. Since then, he has been taking lessons from Mrs Evetyn Reeves for the past eleven years. Because few opportunities for redtals exist, the majority of Ivan ' s pertor- mances are at the annual U I L and University of Houston solo and ensem- ble contests Ivan feels that playing the piano IS very beneficial: When I feel the need to listen to music. I canr»o« only listen to the music I want, but I alter it to suit my feelings at the time Ivan also feels that playing the piano relieves boredom, and is an outlet for tension Although he finds joy and relief in the music that he plays, he believes the most important aspect ol playing the piano is that the piancsl must take responsibility for his defeats as well as his achieverrients.
