We're switching for financial reasons and next Monday is our last lesson with him. We gave him a restaurant gift card for Christmas. Any other ideas?

We need suggestions for this too!

Classical? Jazz? Pop? Perhaps a CD with their favorite type of music/composer, etc.

If you wanted to go all out, you could buy The Teaching Company's How to Listen to and Understand Great Music---but then, it's pricey ($79++, I think) on sale, so if you're switching for financial reasons, that's maybe a bad idea!

We've usually given our piano/voice teacher a classical recording at Christmastime.

A CD, iTunes gift card or other music gift would be nice.

I always enjoy a gift card from the music store so I can buy some pieces for my own enjoyment (not just curriculum).

Might be pricy, but performance tickets? There have been symphony and other musical performances I have really enjoyed (and some I would have loved to attend).

Any help?

How about an itunes gift card?

I think this might be just the ticket. Thanks!

We're switching because we're at a studio, and we're planning to add in TBOM to piano lessons. Even with the sibling discount, it's just too much. We found a girl at church who will teach both kids for only a little more per month than we were paying at the studio, and she'll come to the house to boot!:hurray:
