It reminds me of my Dad playing his beloved piano on a Saturday night in Glasgow with all the Aunts and Uncles gathered round. They were great nights that I will never forget we had our tenement building rocking, god bless you Mum and Dad.
a real inspiration.......Ive not played the piano since i was young but im going to start again...on the look out for a piano cheers mike you have reminded me how much fun can be had at the piano! Keep them coming
Well,Mr Mike you are something special. I love those old songs. Have dabbled in trying to play that style as i play by ear ,but cant really do it.Your remarkable indeed,and plus you look so happy playing !thats great!. you make many people happy and I know that is rewarding!
Visited your country inn 2001 a a beautiful place, Continued success to you ,Don
Typically english made piano with dampers above the hammers lifted by wires on the outside of the action (resembles a bird cage). These pianos usually don't work because they were poorly made- even though they originally had great accoustics and beautiful cases.
I think that's what our piano is xD lol on my next video i'll try and film with the outer shell removed, and see what you think. Just to let you know in advance, i'll do it for my version of The Magnetic Rag, should be on here within a week i hope xD
Thanks for your reply. How did you do your left hand? Maybe just give me the keys for a simple song and if you can (dont want to pressure)and just tell me like press GBDG for G chord or F on the lower and then FACF on the higher something like that Plse. Maybe with the song Tennesse Waltz or Que sera sera or seven lonely days. Which country are you from?

Never mind ABRSM standards - if you'd been my piano teacher I might not have given up playing.
