Well, people occasionally saying that I have fingers of a musician had some impact on me, and I probably start seeing myself as one :D They didn't say exactly - fingers of what musician, though, so I started with electroguitar before switching to keyboards few years later... To be honest, I don't ev...

Yeah, I'm too confused with the sound. It's not what I was expecting: it sounds like a toy piano and certainly marketologists never heard a bold, smooth grand piano sound they're talking about.

I have also been thinking about returning to piano lessons, possibly it may have been that I was set too many 'targets' by my former teacher that made the enjoyment factor of playing disappear. I know everyone says 'you must get a teacher if you want to learn to play properly' but is it really wort...

So, to my view, you got to introduce your students to an instrument which you especially like yourself. I mean, if you know that there's something special in the sound of a specific piano, well, then e...
