Mr Harvey. Would you mind explaining to us the point of your previous post on this thread, and explain in simple English just what you do or do not like about Mr. Meyrick's teaching.


+1, What a confusing post. I'm trying to figure out whether it's to try to "rebalance" the negative comments or something else!

The type face is one used for heavy sarcasm I believe! (Think : ".. and Brutus is an honourable man")

Heavy sarcasm was my first thought, but it gets inconsistent after the opening shots, and ends up in the realms of surrealism.

Heavy and rather embittered was my feeling: It would be interesting to know whence came the axe that is being ground.

Now I read it again at home, it's definitely someone with an axe to grind... someone who has lost pupils to his programme, perhaps? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Instead of posting a veiled tirade, perhaps the poster would like to be a bit more open about their grievances... From what I've heard, those who have done lessons with him have been happy with his teaching.

As I've said before on this thread, Richard Meyrick comes from (and as far as I'm aware still teaches in) my home town. He is an extremely popular teacher...firm but fair, only wanting the best for his pupils. I know this because he taught the mother of a friend of mine.

I can't believe he only does this in order to promote himself or to take credit for developing students that come to him from other teachers.

I've seen him once in a recital and have two of his CD's...one of them being the Beethoven Sonatas. To my mind, he's up there with the best.

Agree that the poster needs to explain how he came to such an opinion.
