Hi there, everyone! It's been a while since my last Lindsey Stirling cover, hasn't it? Here's her latest piece, "Minimal Beat," arranged for piano. I hope you enjoy it!

This piece was a lot of fun to work on, although it did have its share of difficult moments. How do I express the chorus over the verses? How do I play with dynamics in a way that is as effective as the beat drops in the original? Can I show some variation in technique while maintaining this chord for 8 measures? How can I express the syncopation more clearly? Eventually, these issues were resolved into this performance! It's always a pleasure to play Lindsey's upbeat music--it gets the fingers loose and the energy pulsing!

If you're not already familiar, Lindsey Stirling (http://www.youtube.com/lindseystomp) is an extremely talented violinist who I'm sure would love to share her music with you! Please give the rest of her music a listen!

Thanks for your time, friends! I have lots, lots, lots of projects to work on in the next few weeks, so stay tuned for more (piano?) music! :)

Until next time, stay frosty friends!
