The way is the goal. And maybe it helps against early brain degeneration, too!
I just seriously feel I should and must do and start something completely new, else I may turn mad in a couple of years.
but the piece is surprisingly simple in structure (I have the sheets), and so it might be in reach for me in some years.

My first "real" piano hours today. I follow the course in one session, then took some time to play around with the many voices of the keyboard, and then practiced another session hour hitting simple chords, octaves, and training the "Fingersatz" for C Major scales up and down, both hands. Now my arm musclesles are ab it - "sore"... Oh, and I got the first simple Boogiewoogie rythm right, though not as fast as it should be.



The teacher of the course I opetdf for just hitds all my marks, this is one guy to follow for long time to come. I was lucky to find this. I just connect to the way he teaches things.


The keyboard is a technically marvel. It sounds terrificly real, can be tuned and influenced in so unbelievably many ways via blutooth app (as if it were a real piano), the keyboard action unbelievable. It feels like a grand piano, including the surface of the keys, the mechanical minor deaial from the escape, the weighted keys from low to high tones, and even the fact that the very high keys do not have dampening like in reality (the strings are so short that in a real piano there simply is no space left to install dampening cushions). Practically all e-pianos in this price class do not care for these details.

Its unbelievable that such quality and wonder can be had for so little money these days. I may not be competent to talk about keyboards, but still I alreayd would recommend this keyboard very much. Its the upgrade of an absolute bestseller, and that beststeller it is not without reason, it seems. Even the Blutooth connection with my tablet, sometimes criticized , was set up without much hazzle, I just followed the instruction to the last letter.

A beast is creeping circles around my house, its name is ambition.
