Where the work of a lesson is still there next week.

Between lessons, most of what a student played is gone. The figure you worked on together has nowhere to live. By the next session, you start again from a slightly different place.

Those figures stay, the way they were played. The phrase you worked on Tuesday is still there on Friday. Something small that grows between meetings.

The phrase you worked on together — still recognizable, the next time you sit down.
