Classic Piano

[venik]

I just finished uploading this, I figure it is worth a shot posting it here as well and seeing if anyone likes it.

My parents wanted me to thank my piano teacher of 13 years, who hasn't heard me play in 4-5 years. So I recorded this for him and sent it to him.

Your goood. Way to be dedicated and take 13 years of lessons :)....

Ive always found listening to just piano seems to be rather calming :)

Thanks guys, I put alot of work into it.

My teacher wrote back to me, it's very inspiring to me I'll just copy and paste it.

"Kevin,

I'm speechless. It's unbelievable. When did you learn to play so well? It's just incredible--- so sensitively played,such beautiful voicing and beautiful tempo. And I'm very moved by your kind dedication. Thank you very much. Are you studying music now? I hope so. I must have told you at some time that you can trace your piano ancestry back to Liszt. My teacher, Erno Daniel (his son, with the same name, is a doctor at Sansam clinic) studied with a pupil of Liszt (who, by the way, studied with Czerny, who studied with Beethoven). They must all be happy right now. Thank you for this touching gift."

Not only have I never heard him compliment my tempo and voicing...But I learned that my favorite composer, Liszt, is my teacher's teacher's teacher's teacher. Which is actually not a far ancestry of teachers considering he died 125 years ago and since most students learn as children and teach as soon as they are noteworthy.

It worked for me



:Clap: That was just awesome, nothing but fantastic! What were you listening to in the headphones? Was it a click track or something or do you just like listening through the headphones?

Thanks again everyone.

Maybe youtube was having trouble when you tried it? It works for me too.

The headphones are better for the sound because they are neutral (they don't add treble or base or warmth), and I'm used to playing with them on (so I don't bother roommates). The song was recorded in midi, I edited out a couple slips, then mastered, and then overwrote the sound in the video. The video's original sound sounded like footsteps or something lol.

I see, from one musician to another you are very good :salute:

Beautiful from another musician to one!

One of the hardest instruments to learn, which is why I have not attempted...

Thanks for sharing!
