I can still remember sitting on two old, thick telephone books to reach the keys when I began piano lessons as a four-year-old.
 

Trotting along with my mother to weekly lessons in Sydney.
 

The patience of my teacher as she made sure I had the correct hand position, learning Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
 

I continued lessons until my teens and wish I could still play like I used to! 
 

We are lucky enough to still have a piano at home and I’m going to have to sit down and practice once again, because we are celebrating the instrument on Afternoons.
 

We are taking the show on the road to the Fremantle Markets and filling it with music. On Friday 2 May between 12.30pm and 3pm, The Freo Markets piano will be wheeled out and we’ll have an array of people to play it. 
 

We will be at the Henderson Street entrance  - come and say hi, we would love to see you!

Join Nadia Mitsopoulos for a federal election special Spotlight Forum live broadcast where we shine the light on the upcoming election from the WA Musuem, Boola Bardip on Wednesday, 30 April,  8:30 - 11am. 

Listen to Spudshed founder Tony Galati talk about what it was like when he met the Pope during a visit to the Vatican last October. He told Nadia Mitsopoulos on ABC Radio Perth that he did it for his 'really religious' mum.

Perth mum Rochelle Tetlow had a very close encounter with a large shark off Coral Bay over the Easter long weekend and it has changed some of the assumptions she previously held about shark behaviour.

A proposal to transform a "neglected" Swanbourne "dust bowl" into an oasis for terminally ill children draws the ire of some who want the site to remain in hands of the local council. 

You can cut through some of the election noise with Vote Compass. 

No matter where you are on Anzac Day this year, you can commemorate April 25 with us. Tune into our coverage throughout the day across ABC Radio, ABC listen app, ABC TV, ABC iview and online.
