1911

Did you know that Walter Carroll, composer and father of Ida Carroll (student-secretary-prinicipal of the Northern School of Music), kept a sort of log book called "The Musical Education of Ida Gertrude Carroll".

It starts with a foreword, "From the date of birth there was always music to be heard in the house". The notebook tracks development in her musical skill and appreciation year by year until she is about 5.

What do you think of her early years with music?
