I know when I was 12, at least I think 2 piano teachers said I was too good for their level to be taught, adults, and I started at 9 and learned to read music in school at 7 and 8, wanted to do music already as of age 6.
Now, I'm doing violin.
I might have damaged the nerves in my hands and arms when mad and become lazy in such skills for playing music, in ways. Still, I'm considered over and above others who can play a lot of notes, or at least I feel that way, especially considering my level and age I started, compared to a lot of people at least.
It's funny this way, I end up with nothing. No one can teach me or wants to teach me, for some reason. I'm still "too good." I don't really get any reward for being "too good." People don't really like me, and I don't get to perform.
