Paul is my clarinet teacher. I think i got the scholarship at Mathew Flinders, but i don't know officially yet. At the moment I have Laurinda Luckman sitting me for my ATCL. I don't get many lessons with Paul Dean, as he lives a long way away, and he is always very busy. I am currently playing in the local production of "Annie". I'm just in the orchestra though.
