Mon, 06/08/2015 - 2:57pm
This is an overview lesson on a brand new easy piano arrangement of "Ghost Towns" by Radical Face. Well, "easy" might be a bit misleading - the musical navigation can be a bit tricky, so I try to explain how that system works, as well as some tips for learning this song. You can get the sheet music from the forum, or by using this link: https://my.artistworks.com/sites/default/files/Radical_Face_-_Ghost_Towns_Easy_Version_3.pdf.
You can hear the original song on YouTube at https://youtu.be/9MUA9hoDa40
If you want to start Video Exchange lessons on this song, post a video exchange submission of whatever you can play or need help with. Have fun learning this piece!
3 Ways In Which Video Exchange® Lessons Are Better Than Live Lessons
Tue, 05/19/2015 - 4:33pm
When you think of it, traditional lessons where a student goes to a teacher's studio or the teacher comes to the student's home, are terribly inefficient ways to develop a skill that is more akin to learning a foreign language. Here are 3 ways in which I think Video Exchange® lessons are actually a far better way to learn to play the piano (or any other ArtistWorks Video Exchange® subject, for that matter!)
How To Buy A Piano

Before you buy a car, what do you do? Hopefully, you check with some resources to compare prices, features, quality, and repair history to make the most informed purchase decision. What if you could do the same kind of research when buying a piano or digital keyboard? Well, the good news is, you can! Back in 1987, Larry Fine authored "The Piano Book", which has been a staple for piano buyers (and piano dealers) in the ensuing years. This wonderful resource is now supplemented with a website, PianoBuyer.com, designed to help folks make informed choices when investing in a new piano or digital keyboard. In this video, we interview pianist Dr. Owen Lovell, Piano Review Editor for PianoBuyer.com, at the 2015 NAMM show in Anaheim, CA. Be sure to check out this great website and book before deciding to buy your next piano or keyboard!

We've all heard of Steinway and Yamaha pianos, but have you ever heard of a Grotrian? It so happens that this piano was favored by Clara Schumann and highly regarded by the likes of Franz Liszt and Johannes Brahms! The Grotrian-Steinweg, or "Grotrian" for short, is well known in German and European circles, but still something of a "secret gem" in America. In this video, we interview Grotrian-Steinweg director Burkhardt Stein to discover what unique qualities this gorgeous piano brings to the discerning pianist.
