Probably the only time I ever played this song without a mistake somewhere! I only played half of the entire song because I couldn't sustain that speed on a horizontal keyboard!

Interesting tune. You didn't mention what keyboard. If its an Arranger the sound was very convincing.
How,s the piano project going ?

Very nice, Mark. I like the concept of taking a tune that is technically challenging and practicing it until we master it. Our natural tendency is to play either easy tunes or tunes that we like a lot and are comfortable with. It takes a lot of discipline to go outside those boundaries. Like Bill, I too am curious about the instruments used. It really WAS very convincing.

Wow, that’s very impressive Mark! Just curious, did you learn that from written music or by ear ?

Excellent job Mark! Wow - sounded like something you would hear in Germany. Wonderful instrument blend and wonderful technical runs! Loved it! Thanks!

Hi Mark,
that sounded brilliant.
One could just imagine sitting in a little French cafe being serenaded by the accordion player.
Backing nice and simple so it doesn’t detract from the accordion .

Know you have a PA3X, did you use it, if not, what did you use?

Mark, I love that type of music, and you do it well, John C.

PS, I would love to hear you on the accordion.
