I am seriously blow away by what you can do with so few notes and such simple techniques. Going back to watch the basic videos and practice from them now (yes, yes, I'll get your book later).

The new piano sounds great! Thanks for the vids. I've been going through a lot of them the last few days. I really like your teaching style.

Your the best! Thanks a lot for this great new improvisation exercise. Love it. :)

By the way, Bill, aside from musical instruction, even for example in this little vid, it's the rhythm that struck me as "important to learn". It may seem a simple thing, but I find it very helpful to mimic your rhythmic embellishments to get the two hands to "feel" the whole structure of pop (in this case), one more thing to get under my fingers. Thanks!
Wow, nice instrument!A friend of mine was thinking of buying it but was put off by the price(i believe it was 2k)...anyway,just out of curiosity,are you a professional piano player?i was sure you are until i heard in one of your vids that you had to do a lot of typing for work.

@nikolas8ira4 I'm actually an advertising copywriter (though I do a lot of corporate training work, too). My degree was English and Music, and I started out as an English teacher before I started my business :)

What does the far left pedal do? I have one and I don't notice anything when I press it down and play.

@Skadoosh417 It's a soft pedal - you won't notice a great deal on most digitals. I'm planning to make a video about it soon :)

Cool, I love red. My flightcase is bout that colour too :)
What kind of amp are you getting? I have a Hartke KM100 for playing in the band, its pretty good but changes the sound colour a bit. Somehow it just sounds better with headphones.
For at home I'm waiting for the Audioengine A5+. it's 2 bookshelfspeakers with build in amp. They sound awesome (wider frequency range than the hartke) and easy to take with you.

@JeroenvanKleef A fairly bog-standard Roland KC110. Will probably go for a speaker set up soon, but am moving house next year, so I want to see what kind of space I need to fill :)
