Why is it Islamey? Prokovief's Toccata is much harder, I believe.

I am especially suspicious of Chloe Agnew's rendition of Ave Maria (Bach-Gounod) from their concert at the Helix Theatre in Dublin. How can one tell?

I like that "smooth sound" the violin gives off, but it makes alot of.... "creaky" sounds.... Is it because I added too much rosin?

Sorry I posted the question incorrectly. Please explain this chord progression: I, IV, I, V, which is normal for verse, but then in chorus they go to IV, I, II (which is a major), IImaj7, V. What kind of progression is that from I to IImajor, to IImaj 7. Thanks.

I simply don't know how to develop these songs. My knowledge of theory/composition is very limited, so obviously that's something I need to work on, but any suggestions would be appreciated. I know for some people, my songs will probably sound very predictable for your seasoned ears :p

people iv shown this to have said that the first song sounds like Copland and the second one sounds like a Grieg piano concerto... I'm not very familiar with any of those composers, but I thought that was interesting...

all of this was recorded using a yamaha keyboard and a cheap mic, so forgive me if the sound is terrible...

anyway, here's the link... myspace.com/montorguel1988

Is there any good programs for Windows Xp that teach you to play the keyboard. Or any good books? I want to learn how to read notes, I play the keyboard by ear already but It would be dope if I knew what note i was playing by just hearing it, or just seeing the notes in my head and coming up with something

I'm collecting a list of must read autobiographies. I'm trying to hunt down something on Bach. I don't think he wrote an autobiography (correct me if you know better) but did someone close to him or at least that knew him write something about him?

I love this piece by Beethoven
and I learned how to play the
first, second and third parts,
and now I want to know how to play the rest of it.
I'm not sure how to explain where I'm at,
but I stop right before the really hard part begins.
Can you help me?
Or can you tell where I can get the sheet music for
the WHOLE Fur Elise preferably for free?

Thanks a ton :D

Most people have never heard of the greats such as Debussy, Mahler, Brahms, Stravinsky, Ravel, Mussorgsky ect... but they put down classical music when all they probably ever heard was the can can, marriage of figaro overture, or a little night music. And when you try to introduce them to it they say no way.

But what do the designations "Op" and "No." mean in classical music? Ex: Chopin's Nocturne Op. 35, No. 1) Who assigned those designations? Also, what are Movements 1, 2 and 3?

It's a great essayist and scholar -- Charles Rosen is the 'agent provocateur' in this splendid case -- who can just about antagonise every possible element of his audience at a stroke with just one sentence in order to make a crucial point. Pointing towards spatial awareness and muscle memory, what do you think might his next line be to justify this sally? And do you agree?

Yes that is my general question, but here is more about my case..

I have an English Eavestaff upright piano which gets out of tune in about 6 months. I play around 1 to 2 hours per day on average. Eavestaff (Chippendale, if you know what I mean..)

If you really know what I mean, how good is the piano otherwise??? I kind of bought it, because I loved the tone plus it takes more finger force to press the keys, which is good, as this develops your fingers and you get a great pleasure and ease when playing other pianos..

Another question:

When a tuner comes to your home to tune your piano, what a good professional tuner should consider. I know some tuners not only tune but do something to the softness of the hammers and they might even change the touch,.. how to say... well the amount of force needed to suppress the key.. Is this true and is this good stuff to expose your piano to???

What should one consider in such issues???

I listen to https://secure.classicalarchives.com/login.html sometimes, but the only free music are computerized recordings or low quality recordings. Doesn't sound good.
