Re: Group 2 @Michelle R You are TOTALLY getting the hang of this! I love the idea of singing along. (i'd try that, but my piano is next to my husband's office and I'd scare him if I try to sing...LOL)

Re: Group 2 @Michelle R You can always break down ANY piece into bits that DO work for you. Just try the right hand, for example, really slowly! Or just listen to the videos and follow along.

My favorite activity is chamber music, but I love learning solo repertoire now here at Tonebase.

I'm so excited to meet other pianists from all around the globe.
