I have heard of LEFT HANDED Guitar players.....(Hendrix, McCartney etc)....
But has anyone ever heard or seen a LEFT HANDED PIANO (High Notes on the left side)?

I think it would be worth the investment to have one sitting in my livving room. It would be a riot watching my friends try to play it after having a few beers.

I'm left handed (great for rag-time)... but, that's really wierd!

Donny, I read once where Joe Zawinul of Weather Report had a backwards keyboard built for practice. He would play with one had on it and the other hand on a normal keyboard and he would switch hands and keyboards back and forth on the fly as he practiced. This was a "left-brain--right brain" kind of thing. He also practiced writing with either hand, always pushing the limits of his concentration.

When I was a kid I broke my wrist and had to write with my left hand for 8 months..... the first few weeks was rough, but after a while I started out of forced nessessity to get comfortable doing it. Driving a stickshift was a difficuly\t crossed arm affair also but its possible. I saw a boy with no arms decifer a "RUBICS CUBE Puzzle" with his feet!! I have also seen sidewalk artists in front of the Museum Of Modern Art do pastels of Michael Angelo's
calibur drawing with just their toes simply amazing!! Anything is possible!

Amen.

(see Phil. 4:13)

The wife's left handed. I'm ambidextrous with power tools, spanners and spoons, and a mixture with most other things. We have a left-handed corkscrew - you should see that confuse people!

Played with a trombone player in high school who played "left handed". Ruined the symmmetry of the section. His intonation also ruined the playing of the section.

Saw a "left handed" accordion player at a rest home once. Couldn't figure out what was different at first. Then I realized he was playing a standard accordion turned upside down so the left hand played the piano keyboard side. Interesting chord voicings.
Don't know if his weak playing was due to his ability or the fact the accordion was upside down.

Maybe he didn't know it was upside down.

LOL.... Your a riot Don. To bad our Smiley Legend doesn't have a "bust out laughing with a knee slap" icon. Your reply sure deserves it. LOL...
