Piano tips/sheet music

Audio only might be easier to record

Yeah I will have to do it via the laptop though so the sound wont be great....

So just had a quick go at the music, played the first few lines. Its quite fun to play actually, sounds very musical

It is a beautiful piece. If you can listen to the original for small chamber orchestra its absolutely enthralling (nice word!). I will have a practice on it and see if I can record something tomorrow!

This is the version I think: bit wooden the way it is played but gives an idea.

That's an interesting arrangement for the piece, my one is much different. That one cuts out quite a bit of the introduction, and the bass part in the fast moving section is much more moving.

The original version though is definitely great.

Even I do the same..

BTW, I've finished Indian National Anthem (with accompaniment). Shall I upload that video or not?

Wow that version sounds beautiful. I could never dream of playing that, think Ill stick with my dumbed down version

Gonna have a shot at learning Canon in D as my first ever classical song. Sounds amazing, normally I never listen to classical music but this is one that I actually think sounds incredible.

Okay this is the piece I am working on at the moment. It is by the great man him self J S Bach and is a well known piece. The trick is is to make sure the left hand comes out really well. It is easier than it looks!

I will see if I can upload me playing it and in the meantime here is someone who plays it rather well!

Enjoy.

The more astute amongst you will have seen that it is just the first two pages you need!!

Really if it's a Prelude & Fugue you should be playing both parts

It looks pretty easy but still nice to listen to Some of Bach's other Prelude & Fugues can be terribly difficult ><

Very true but it is usually played apart, and the fugue is a bit boring to be frank.....it is quite easy but satisfying to play and hear.

On the note of P's Cannon in D, this is just a nice bit of comedy about that song.

:laugh great find.

Is that when he goes on about how all these modern songs sound like canon in D?

 

[pcfan123]

Got a day off

going to make some recordings today, playing around with the camera to see where I get the most balanced sound.

Will record my progress in Canon in D so far and a final complete performance of River.

Look forward to the critiques.
