Very nice Anthony. That is some good musicianship. Pianoteq sounds great, especially controled by your nimble fingers

Here's a latest: http://www.box.net/shared/lorcycbufv

angelo - thanks for making washing dishes tolerable. A hard task, but you were up to it. I love the upbeat parts. Really nice jazzy feel.

Cathy

Thanks Cathy!
I may not get you to be a Phillies fan, so thanks for listening, and congrats on the World Series!

David Ruzicka, nice work on Bach's Prelude in E minor. Hope you post more of your music.

Sam Smith, I really like these harpsichord/recorder duets. They are so peaceful, serene. All is right with the world (for a few minutes, at least).

Martin, very nice. I was puzzled at first by the title, but it is indeed pensive! Well done.

Elssa, loved the Moon River. The cross handed thing was nifty! I think one of the keys to your success is that you integrate your right and left hands so smoothly, so that you can create a very full sound without needing any olympian acrobatic effort by either hand. If we only had the audio, we'd be thinking - geez, she must have ten fingers on her right hand. Well done!

Tatiana, both pieces were beautifully played. You have a very nice touch, nice expression. Well done!

Anthony, great job on the Einaudi piece. Very peaceful, calming. Also liked the video piece. Reminded me of The Piano.

Augustina, nice duet. Family fun at the piano can be such a wonderful experience. Well done to you both.

Joe, nice work on Blue Velvet. Brought back some memories!

Elssa, great work, and a nifty ending on the Two Guitars video.

Angelo, Greensleeves with rhythmic variations! Very interesting, dishes or no dishes!

Hey Rick! I have to "hand" it to you - you're going to start making these ladies so self-conscious about their hands that they're going to wear gloves to play for their videos, much to the detriment and chagrin of the rest of us...

TRUE BEGINNER - A nice contribution/composition. Apt title!

BILL - Cool vocal effects! Another victorious entry in your repertoire! Thanks for including the scat, too.

RICK - You will never wear out your welcome with a rock and roll! I really enjoyed your pensive work here... Just a suggestion here: When you release your Rock and Roll CD to the public, mabe make "Restoration" the last tune on it. It has a great feeling to it, and it would make the perfect last song on a rocking CD!

Thanks for the comments, John and Angelo!

And, in regards to my comments about the ladies lovely hands, the human hand is indeed a wonderful work of creation (or evolution, if that is what you believe), whether male or female. Just think about what all we can do with our hands…. the skills that can be accomplished with them.

Of course, some hands are better looking than others!

Keep up the good work everyone!

Rick

Well, last one for awhile before I get busy
Its still not perfect, but I love this song:) here it is
Oh I recorded the song with my mp3 player, so the audio is not that great, I couldn't find my camera lol:)

Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, by Johann Sebastian Bach

I'll get caught up with listening to everyone's music tonight:P

Nice one Augustina, and appropriate for the season. I've always loved that piece.

angelojf- You piano playing has gotten quite good - Very well done. I hope Santa brings you a recorder that better captures the high quality of your performances.

great video and excellent playing!. I'd be seriously interested in learning how to get that type of angle / low light shot since I love the whole black & white feel (kind of like the keys)

AnthonyB, that little piece (Le Onde etc.) was interesting. Nice job!

Augustina, duets are such fun . . . but I really suck at them. You don't.

Studio Joe, Blue Velvet has never been one of my favorites, but you made a great recording there. Nice job!

tatiana, I enjoyed both of your pieces. I thought you played particularly well on the first one.

angelojf, that is a really interesting version of Greensleeves with lots of variations. I hear some hints of the Guaraldi arrangement, but other variations as well. Nice!

AnthonyB, that's a pretty sweet sounding, Stella. Nice job.

Augustina, I love Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. It has to be my favorite Bach piece. I can't play it for crap, but I love it. Thanks for this. Is that a string quartet voice? I usually HATE synthetic strings, but this seems pretty appropriate for the piece. Quite enjoyable.

Anthonyb Great job I enjoyed both your songs alot
angelojf: Was very enjoyable thank you
tatiana110: Both of your songs were pretty and you play well
Studio Joe: I also enjoyed this one a lot Blue Velvet and liked the way you recorded it, was good
TX-Dennis, thank you, I also love that song, and I messed around on my keyboard for a sound that would sound good with it, "Strings2 as they call it on the keyboard" is what I used? Playing Duets with my sister is a lot of fun. I just talked her into joining the forum actually, so she should be here soon:)
