He turned back, looking surprised and impressed when Professor Marchand told he had been in a rock band while he had been in school and the Ravenclaw was suddenly hit by the obvious fact that they had been students as well. Which was weird, wasn't it? Still, the fact that he had been part of a rock band was very cool even if rock wasn't his style.

He turned back to the piano and sat down on the stool in front of it. He opened up the piano and small pieces of memories from his tutoring classes came back to mind. He placed his fingers on the white keys and pressed but didn't continue because one of them had asked him a question.

He raised an eyebrow, wasn't it obvious which intrument he was interested in? "Piano" obviously. "I had lessons when i was younger but..." he let out a long and loud sigh. "I was horrible" he shrugged his shoulders like it was no big deal but in reality it made him a bit sad that the instrument he was interested in was the one he was bad at. "Something about my lack of patience or something" or whatever that meant. "How long did it take before you two learned those instruments?" he asked cause ugh at practicing. He wanted to be good right away. Hmm maybe there was a potion for that?

The Librarian asked curiously as he gently ran his fingers over the sides Of his instrument. "I could help you with violin, and my niece is pretty good at piano, if you are wanting to play either of those.. " Did Leon play guitar? He couldn't even remember right now!

Ahh well..

His green eyes lit up slightly at the offer, "I might have to take you up on that..I've always wanted to learn the guitar actually, and while I think my nephew might play one, he's busy with his YATI training. " He said with a soft chuckle.

Kalen grinned as The Charms professor laughed, it was good to see the man happy, he had looked so gloomy lately.. something Kalen was curious about but he wasn't the type to pry.. after all Kalen had something in his past that he didn't talk about either..

"Ahhh, I see. Sometimes magic can be helpful for things, like saving people's eardrums while we learn to actually carry a tune. " He said with a laugh as he shook his head a bit..

He turned back to Mr.Winslow as well as he sat down at the piano bench and Kalen smiled.. "Well patience is the key to learning an instrument, you won't be great over night. " Kalen said as he ran his fingers gently over the piano keys.. "I started violin lessons when I was six, and was still going to them when I was sixteen. Even now I like to sit in on lessons, just to make sure that I haven't forgotten anything and to see if I can learn anything new. " He said with a smile.

Gaston's eyes widened slightly when Kalen said his niece was good at piano. That was something he hadn't known about Miss Snow! Before he could reply, Mr. Winslow spoke up, and what he said made the professor chuckle a little. "Well, i suppose great minds think alike!" he said. "I always wanted to learn to play the piano myself. I had a friend teach me the basics..." Or at least enough to write a few simple song melodies. "...but I was never able to get good at it."

He nodded along with what his colleague said to the Ravenclaw. "Mr. Kennedy is right; learning an instrument takes a lot of time and patience," he agreed, smiling encouragingly. The question came as a bit of a surprise, but still he answered, "I started playing when I was eight, but I was probably thirteen or fourteen when I started to get good." And by "good", he meant passable enough that his friend Lucien let him join his rock band.

Kalen's reaction to the offer for guitar lessons made Gaston smile. "I can write him and tell him you're interested, if you like," he offered. The mention of Leon was unexpected but nonetheless made his smile grow. He always knew that kid was going places! "Oh? Well, the next time you see him, tell him I said congratulations... and good luck!"
