Hi! My name is Karen, and this blog is going to be about playing the piano. It will be based around not only the pieces I have played, and how I am doing with a piece (etc.), but it will contain some stories and information about playing piano, such as some famous pianists, history of piano, stories about your average-everyday pianists, and much more!
I highly encourage viewers who play piano to PLEASE post videos/recordings of you playing the piano, any type of question relating to the topic of music and piano, and even if you just want to say hi...well, sure - I would really appreciate it!
Thanks!

ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite songs on the piano from the movie Marie Antoinette
Well, there are several things that inspire me to play piano - it used to be that I had dreams of becoming a concert pianist, but that dream has sort of gone away now. Now, my main inspiration isn't necessarily an inspiration; simply that the pieces I play spark certain emotions in me. For instance, when I'm playing a slow, nocturne, I become very emotional, and the feeling is sort of a melancholy. So I guess you could say that the pieces I play inspire me to keep on playing, so that I can once again get to that emotional place. It sounds cheesy, but its true!
ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks SO MUCH for commenting! Congrats for being the first to comment on anything on my blog! Also I LOVED the video - a beautiful piece played with lots of emotion! Thanks!
