Monica - I liked this very much. Flawlessly played. Do you always memorize your pieces? Very impressive.

Hi All!

I’ve enjoyed the piano bar this month, a lot! (As usual!)

I actually recorded another new song I wrote this morning. I wrote it last night and recorded it this morning. It has a “country flair” to it and reminds me a little of the “George Jones” style. Who knows, maybe I’m really country at heart! grin

Anyway, I thought I’d share it here on the piano bar… the title of it is “Every time I think about you it makes me feel so young”.

It was early this morning when I recorded it, and I still had bags under my eyes! I’m glad I feel young, because I don’t think I look very young!! grin

I hope you all enjoy it!

Take care,

Rick

Wow Rick that was amazing! thumb

I wish I could say, oh here's something I wrote this morning!

Thanks everyone for the comment on Pete's piece. It wasn't a dog, BenPiano, but there was a lot of creaking. It's either my piano stool or my sustain pedal that's making the creaking. I really must get that pedal tuned....

Great stuff this month! I've enjoyed listening - still catching up to the latest.

Here's my second "Bar" contribution. A work-in-progress, my attempt at Bruce Hornsby's instrumental Song D.

This is a cool one, sounds pretty heroic. I just recorded it about an hour or two ago. There's a mistake near the end but I'm trying not to worry about it too much. help


Another nice performance and an interesting piece.

In case you still didn't watch enough piano videos after all those wonderful submissions in this month, I've recorded two new pieces. And by "new" I mean "hundreds years old".

First one is Christian Petzold's Minuet in G Minor which is sometimes attributed to J.S.Bach. You know which minuet is it - the nice one from the Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach:

Christian Petzold - Minuet in G Minor (BWV Anh. 115):



The second one is Daniel Steibelt's Adagio. BenPiano posted his interpretation of this piece to the Piano bar some time ago and I liked it very much. So much, actually, that I decided to learn this piece too. My piano teacher instructed me to play it much slower so I did but, unfortunately, on the DP it doesn't sound as good as on the acoustic. At least not in this tempo:

Daniel Gottlieb Steibelt - Adagio:




David, I didn't recognize the name Petzold, but I recognize the piece. I always thought it was a Bach. Great job. By the way, what happened to your girlfriend's bird? Now you seem to have a new sculpture on your piano.

The Steibelt piece is beautiful and expertly played as well.

Well Since I'm on spring break from school I seem to have extra time for playing piano yay! But I should really be doing my homework frown But I'd really rather play the piano.. piano is a bigger distraction from school than my computer nowadays lol.
Anyway here's another submission from me! Nice old Patriotic song from the usa. America the Beautiful


That's a pretty nice arrangement of America the Beautiful. I like that. Great job.

Here's another submission from me. It's a fancy little arrangement of Ode to Joy. Hope you enjoy! smile
http://www.box.net/shared/ukr3qran2s

ALso, the last several pieces I've uploaded have been arranged by Lorie Line including this one. I just discovered her last week! She's actually pretty cool and does a lot of fancy little arrangements of songs like this and most of them are about intermediate level. SHe has a few that are beginning level and some more advanced level sheets too. But She's got some pretty cool arrangements and you can check her out at her website. She has some downloads available as well. This one is actually referred to the hymm joyful joyful we adore thee on her list of downloads but it's still commonly known on the piano as Ode to Joy.

http://www.lorieline.com/


I like this on, too. Thanks also for the tip on Lorie Line. I think I'll be purchasing some of her arrangements.

That's quite a nice piece. I haven't heard this one before. Wonderful job.

This is "Waiting for the Sun," by Nevue. You can order the sheet music off his website, www.davidnevue.com. I don't know what was going on with the video and glaring light on this one--it must have been unusually sunny the day I recorded it. But since the piece is sun-related, I figured it was okay to leave it full of sunshine. smile


A wonderful performance, Monica. At least that sun was on your back rather than in your face. That would have been one tough performance.

That does sound a bit like something George Jones would have done. There's also just a hint of country gospel style in there too. I enjoyed listening Rick.

Larry, that's superb. I love the piece, and I love your interpretation. I also love your piano, by the way. Beautiful!

I dont know how old Fragoso was when he wrote this, but he died at 21. I cant help but think of this young man and what he could have become when I play this piece. Enjoy!

That was lovely, Ben. I've never heard of Fragoso - when was the prelude written?
I really like your camera angle, too. Nice relaxed playing!
