very well done!

@sadie4me2 Thanks

@aquariousify Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it. Structurally, its really "full" with respect to the harmony used because its a transcription from orchestra to piano solo. SO your fingers are usually "full" when you're playing this version. Just takes some patience to get it under your fingers, that's all. Oh...and I didn't know it WAS a movie :S

Very, very nice - We both have a "strong" touch and I am working to soften mine when needed. I learn so much from hearing others play the same things I do. I am getting ready to post some classical stuff. Keep in touch with yours.

@hypnotizednotes Thanks kevin, and thanks for the criticism. Can you provide me with places you think are too "harsh" so I can focus my ear on them? If its a melody harshness, I guess I could try to remember to "round" my wrists more, or if its a chordal harshness, I guess I could use better body-weight movement. I too am listening to people play the same pieces i do, especially the non-classical stuff which i'm relatively new at

[TheRealDanielAbreu]

Thanks. I expected it to be that harmonically involved since its a transcription from orchestra to piano solo. I loved the sound of the full-sized chords! I'm expecting the same for Tchaikovsky's Nutracker Suite which I'm also planning on taking on some time in the future.

Outstanding!! especially for this M Loveridge transcription for piano.
