Jon Schmidt's "Waterfall"

This is me playing a contemporary piano piece called "Waterfall" written by Jon Schmidt (the most amazing pianist on Earth).

**To any piano players out there, if you enjoy this song as much as I do I would strongly recommend learning this piece. It is rewarding in more ways than one, and the "learning" or "practicing" stages are not so bad, it's actually quite repetative and well written out for easy reading. I encourage you for this challenge, and I would love to see a video of your performance. Shall you decide to make said video, just post it as a video response so I know it's there, and who knows...maybe it'll help with the views too. =]
good luck!

*More Schmidt recommendations from me are "All of Me" , "Dumb Song", "To the Summit" , and "Song of the Ocean". These are just my favorites, but he has many more.



SHEET MUSIC: The sheet music for "Waterfall" can be found on Jon Schmidt's web site (www.jonschmidt.com) for only $0.99. It's way more than worth it. =] He deserves every cent he makes.

Lol, is it sped up? it's good, bu you left out some of the left hand. :)

[BJamesThompson]

@Wurbyfu nope! haha but maybe i was playing too fast? i like your version btw, it's slower but very clean and thorough. good work! =]

[BrykenR93]

mediocre hand position, i will guarantee that as soon as you fix your collapsed fingers and some other things it will be perfect((:

[BJamesThompson]

@BrykenR93 hey thanks for the comment. I would like to ask you what you mean by "collapsed" fingers? haha. I haven't really been taught piano professionally. Just by my own. So I'm very behind on technique and theory, but anyway I am interested in your statement! Please let me know thanks ! =]

[BrykenR93]

@BJamesThompson So what i mean by that is when you press the keys on the piano your fingertips should be pressing on the piano, and what i mean by that is the very top part of your finger, so basically the first joint on your finger should be perpendicular to the piano keys... make sense?

[BJamesThompson]

@BrykenR93 yes that makes perfect sense! Thank you, I have never had anybody notice that before. I will now consider this new point while practicing to improve technique and performance. Thanks again =]
