Adults have had their lifetime to become familiar with music so they know how it is
“supposed” to sound,
whereas children usually have never heard the piece they are learning.
This can create an illusion that the skils you acquired many yeas ago have been forgotten.
Its never too late.
Whether you want to start learning to play a new instrument or restart your lessons you have stopped many years ago.
Whatever you learnt as a child you will always remember.
It is like swimming.
When you get back in the water after many years, you don't drown because the skills always remain with you.
