Update: Blind sisters excel at music after Neighbourly user donates piano
Kia ora neighbours.
In 2019 I wrote about sisters Daelani and Tayla Marsters, who are both blind. The pair really improved on their piano skills after being gifted a piano from Neighbourly user Christine Collins. You can read all about that by clicking 'read more' below.
I'm thrilled to share that Tayla has since put together her own composition, and it's very impressive. You can listen here: www.youtube.com...
There must be more Neighbourly kindness and success stories out there - if so, I'd love to hear from you, email me at caroline.williams@stuff.co.nz
