I'm playing the lunch hour at the Co Springs Senior Center on Monday the 23rd. I warned them I don't have Christmas music, but it'd be a shame to not do something I think. So we'll see - Stay warm for you, too! I hear you guys got arctic air yesterday! Cathy Cathy Perhaps "more music" is always the answer, no matter what the question might be! - Qwerty53

Kenjazz, I also didn't realize that Lo How a Rose Eer Blooming was a Christmas song, I really enjoyed your playing of. And Jazzwee, great addition to your first upload! Dannac, what arrangement is this? (get it, it's a pun, sorry, shot me now). Is that your own arrangement? It sounds lovely! Now, I need to get practicing and see if I can push the tempo up a little bit, that always makes such a difference.... Looking forward to more listening soon! Started piano June 1999.

Had such a new age feel to it but the main melody was played with a lot of heart and soul. Beautiful! My YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/candlelightpiano/videos

Peterws: I love the two pieces, especially ON CHRISTMAS DAY. I felt like I was up on the Scottish Highlands watching dancers pirouette and have a wonderful time. You have a delicate, beautiful touch.

Then getting it here. Let me criticise, first. It (any vulgar expletive). Am playing on a CDP-100. Don't have my M8000 working anymore. Sad...I really connected with that keyboard. Loved it. Now taking a step back and relearning. I'm just far enough along to really connect with the feeling in the keys. Maybe Santa will bring me a VPC? BTW: This is my first upload after EccoFatto.

I liked the emphasis on the second half start - such command and proclamation. Very well played.
