Solo Piano Performance 2
39About a year ago, I recorded this video of me playing piano as well as I was able to:

Since then, I started playing more piano—specifically to learn and perform some songs I promised I would learn in a Patreon campaign from 2019. Most of those Patreon songs were ones I was able to perform as an instrumental duet with Clayton; I’ll be posting the video of that performance on this channel tomorrow, and I’ll link it here when it’s posted:

Four of the songs I had to learn, however, were pretty strictly piano songs; so, that’s how I learned and performed them. I think I improved, somewhat, as a pianist in the process. Here are the selections and the order they’re played in this video:
0:00 Coldplay - “Postcards From Far Away”
1:12 Michael Nyman - “The Heart Asks Pleasure First”
3:42 Frédéric Chopin - “Nocturne Op. 9 No. 1” (motif)
5:32 Claude Debussy - “The Girl With the Flaxen Hair”
Thank you for watching; and, if you were a Patreon from this original campaign, thank you double. I’m sorry for the delay, and I hope you enjoyed the performance of your song.
