wow nice work.

could you tell me more about the music, i really like it.

also, are you still making lessons?

[getpianolessons]

Thanks.... its a song I wrote a while back with another musician.

More lessons are coming soon on my DVD (coming out in September)

[DarkBlade4]

oh ok. Do you have the song as mp3 along with other songs like that, I like the style.

Thx

[getpianolessons]

I don't have an mp3 of it right now, but thanks for letting me know.... its a fairly simple song to play so I may consider doing a lesson on it in the future. But not right now (still other things I must teach first).

Hey You Forgot Upright Pianos.

[getpianolessons]

Well technically, the Clavicytherium, shown in the video IS an upright. Another historical upright was the "Giraffe" piano, which I wasn't able to find. But keep in mind that uprights weren't invented until the mid 19th century, AFTER the decline of the square piano. So they're not a major part of the piano's historical timeline. Besides if you visit any local piano store today, you're likely to see plenty of uprights but hardly *any* of the instruments you saw in this video. Hmm... why is that?
