I’ve been working on this song for 3 months now. I forgot the sheet music that day so I did it all from memory, not half bad (except for the part where i say “crap I forgot” or something along those lines). I can’t wait until I can play this song up to tempo!!

  • That's really pretty! I wish I could play the piano that nicely. Do you play by ear or did you take lessons? (I play by ear)

    Have you heard the song "The Promise" by Michael Nyman? One of my favorite piano pieces!
  • I can play by ear and by using sheet music, although I am way more comfortable with sheet music. I took one year of piano lessons when I was 5 and began taking lessons again when I was a Freshman in college.

    I haven't heard The Promise but I'll definitely look it up! I'm always looking for more repertoire :)
  • What an amazing talent and creativity. That was beautiful. Well played and well written. I had fun just watching the speed of your fingers.

  • That was really beautiful and it was exceptional that you did it without the sheet music present. You are very talented.

  • I am listening to this music while I am twitting and you know what, I stopped twitting! :) I also appreciate (not on an expert's point of view though) classical music. I even remember the stack of tapes that I have here from my former church musical director / teacher in highschool. He also composes some classical tunes.

    Would you mind if I share your blog (this post in particular) to him one time? :)

    Have a great day!

  • Awww, thanks. I don't think it's THAT good. But then again I'm my worst critic :P Feel free to share with whomever you wish. :)
  • That is just too intense! How in the world does one's fingers keep up with one's mind when playing a piece like this from memory? The finished product is going to be outstanding. Thanks for the share!

    Friends 4 Life!

  • I honestly don't know how I remember it, I wonder this myself. I try not to dwell on it, because when I do I always mess up while playing lol.

    Wow that is simply amazing! Can't wait to see the finished product :)
