New neighbors

Over the weekend, I moved into a new apartment - many of you will begin to have lessons in this new space in the coming week.
At this point, things are a little rough around the edges.

I haven't lived in an apartment building in over a year, and there is always the anxiety of practicing in a space that is really not all that private. Will the neighbors complain? How loud is it on the other side of the wall? How many third-octave scales at 8 am does it take to get kicked out of a building?

My personal nightmare is the person upstairs writing the next great American novel.

So far, no complaints. So I continue to melodicize...
