Well it seems that many viewers of my blog like J.S Bach.
And there's always those who like pop artists (Who are you who voted Michael Jackson?)
And Some people just cant decide.

School is back...

Since my piano lessons are starting up again, I will begin working on my pieces that I "dropped" during the break. Some I'm still continuing to work on, but i have started a few more since my last update:
1. "Warsaw Concerto" by Richard Addinsell
2. "Sonata No.8 in C minor" by Beethoven (the second movement, and just started the third)
3. "Sonata No. 21 in C major" also by Beethoven (I really like this piece, listen to it on youtube)
4. "Ballades op.10 No.1 movement 1" by Brahms
5. and the "Polonaise in C Minor" by Chopin.

I've also sparked interest in playing the guitar (again), so I've been playing around on it lately.

Christmas music

For the Christmas season I've been playing from a book entitled "Christmas at the Keyboard with Mark Hayes". There are some great arrangements of Carols in this book, perhaps my favorite so far being his arrangement of "O Come, O Come, Emanuel". The songs aren't all that difficult, but some would require a bit of practice to master.

I found this in the "Warsaw Concerto" by R. Addinsell. For those of you who read music or play an instrument, I give you:




your guess is as good as mine...

Here is a list of a few pieces I'm working on for piano right now:

Chopin's "Polonaise in A major"
"Warsaw Concerto" (the piano part itself) by Richard Addinsell,
and Beethoven's good ol' Sonata no.8 in C minor.
I had never heard of Richard Addinsell until I picked this piece up just a few weeks ago. It's a cool piece, difficult to learn, but I like the sound of it so far.

This is my first post to simply say i will stick to posting about Music, art, or things I'm eager to talk about.
