Aloha everyone, I decided to upload another piano piece that I played, this is one that George Winston wrote,called Thanksgiving, I decided to start learning to play this one almost 2 weeks ago and this is what I got so far, I only play by ear, no sheet music ( I wish I knew how to read music), comments are welcome.
The upload is on my website at
http://www.koawoodhawaii.com
and right at the top of the page is 2 different songs that you can upload the second one is Thanksginging, the link says Download Unknown Artist - Thanksgiving so click onto that and tell me what you think, thanks and aloha.

Catching up after finally getting through the recital. I can't believe how much I missed just in a week.

@Elssa: I loved Moon River. For Two Guitars. Faster, faster, faster. Sorry, that piece just always gets me going. Really entertaining.

@tatianna110: Herderson's Toccatina was beautiful and Grieg really doesn't get much play around here. Thanks for sharing these. I really enjoyed them.

@AnthonyB: the Einaudi was too short. It was really drawing me in. The video in the second one was great. Really enjoyable performance.

@Augustina: the duet sounds like fun. I love Jesu as well. I've worked on it a few times. Mine is a clunker in the worst ways. Very enjoyable.

@Studio Joe: smooth. Just like velvet.

@angelojf: I loved this. I need to start on the Christmas carols. I've got Vince Guaraldi's Charlie Brown Christmas here (it was one of the things Santa brought me last year).

@kalai1: I remember this one. What you had so far sounded great.


Is anyone else have some issues with some of the Box.net stuff. The .wav's from angelojf and Augustina wouldn't play in Windows Media Player after downloading. RealPlayer played them. I'm pretty sure my drivers are up to date and they were just .wav files. Oh well. At least I got to hear them.

Yes, mine included - but FCOL enough about hands already - hands off!

Hi PeggySue,

I’m afraid I don’t know what “FCOL” means. But, I’ll tell you what… I won’t mention hands again on the AB forum.

Best regards,

Rick

Hey everyone, first time posting in this forum/thread Decided to try and upload a piano piece I played. It's a very simple version of the Music Box Dancer. I'll have to go through and listen to everyone else's playing. :P
enjoy!

hey sister good job:D

Welcome to the forum ladypayne.

One of my dad's favourites. Nicely done. Thanks for the memories.

Kalai1, I have not heard Thanksgiving before. It is a beautiful piece, and you played it equally beautifully. Great job!

Hello, Augustina's siter (ladypayne). Welcome to the forum. Nice playing on Music Box Dancer. This one brings back memories.

@HomeInMyShoes thanks for listening and commenting.
@TX-Dennis thanks also for taking the time to listen and comment on my new piano piece.
I posted on the recital and from the comments I got it seems like I can say I play New Age Style Piano, I like it a lot and I am still learning all the terms and stuff, I am totaly self taught just by listening to George Winston, now I am trying to broaden my ability and listening to other piano music, and I must say PianoWorld has helped me listen to a lot of great and varied piano music, it is giving me new ideas and sounds to play around with, thanks and aloha.

Hey Kalai1, I listened to your piece and it was very beautiful. Nice job and appropriate for the season too! :p

For Crying Out Loud?

Sounds good to me… I was thinking “For Californians Out of the Loop”, or “For Competent Outstanding Leadership”, how about “Forum Celebrities On a Locomotive” or “For Centuries On Land”, or maybe “Friends Can Offer Love”. Yea, that’s a good one.

Take care,

Rick

It's in the urban dictionary.

Thanks again, all, for listening and your kind comments! Well, I type all day for a living (medical transcription), so my fingers/hands are always busy and getting a workout.

Tatiana, maybe we should apply for one of those hand soap commercials - can't remember if it was Ivory or Palmolive, with Madge...("you're soaking in it!").

What's better than Bach? Two Bachs. So here is my second Bach video in this month. I feel very productive now

It's Prelude in G minor (BWV 929):
