Piano Jamming 2 - A Spontaneously Played 11:40 Minute Long Video I Made

[John Egbert]

A few months ago, I videotaped me playing the piano and videotaped it from the left side of my piano. It got some good feedback, but I'm more proud of this video.

If you can, please give me some feedback, rate the video, or comment.

That was pretty fun to watch :smile: I'd suggest learning more chord and scale theory, though, you occasionally hit some duff notes which kind of ruined what you had going- perhaps play to a metronome too?

(And try keeping your wrists higher. I know it's haslle but when I used to have a piano teacher he'd drill that into me constantly and it really does help).

Thanks for the feedback, helps me improve a lot. I think I should first work on playing the notes less fast and more accurately, because I know that I did hit some snags in the song. Sometimes I do forget to keep my wrists high and that does help a lot.

Hey, it was nice! I agree with all the things chaz13 said, but an additional note: try and sit farther back. You should be sitting on nearly the edge of the piano bench with the ends of your knees not under, but just in front of the piano. This may seem like a really far way away, but it'll give you more control.

Appreciate the tips, Shmoe! I'll keep it in mind.
