I've been dabbling most of my life, but I decided to really go in on learning piano in 2022. Here are my first few forays!
Faber – The Medieval Piper
Been enjoying sightreading short and sweet 5-finger pieces like this.
Lynes – Sonatina in C
Noodling!
Beethoven - German Dance No. 1
Faber - Fantasia Con Spirito
Spooky music month! This one feels very "Cave of Wonders" from Aladdin. 🧞♂️
Swing Low
Sangin'! With Lucy!
Gurlitt – The Return
Strauss - Blue Danube Waltz
Faber - 100 Degree Blues
Sounds about right down here in Texas 😓
Faber - Chocolate Blues
Faber - Tropical Island
Speer - Baroque Dance
So stately! 🎩
Faber - This One is About Cats
The little rascals! 🐈
Dvorak — New World Finale
So TRIUMPHANT! 🌅 💪
Faber — Whispers of the Wind
Sooooo pretty. Lots of fun cross-hands action going on!
This was one of those when I started piano lessons where I thought "I didn't know even the EASY pieces could sound so beautiful!" 🍃
Beethoven - German Dance
🕺
When I started lessons last year, this was my first assignment. It took aaaaalll week to get to a point where I could make my way through it. Now, I'm able to brush it up and play it through in a couple of sessions. A proud moment!
