Work In Progress

Progress report!

Not to brag about but as you guys know I already "mastered" playing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star and Ode to Joy. Today I finally learned how to play ultra simple version of Cat Stevens "Morning has broken" in C- major scale. Tomorrow hopefully its time for "Imagine" from J. Lennon.
Wish me luck!

BTW: Learning music theory and simple songs with music keyboard is IMHO far more interesting then learning this on piano. Put a any voice from the E463 and you can be amazed how songs sounds with different voices. Its like a drug. You can't stop practicing and experimenting.

So what about you guys? Any interesting WIP to report?

Brilliant.

That is the beauty of an Arranger, you can make music very quickly.

Keep at it

Good work!
It is like a drug. Adictive.
The arrangements and variations to tunes that can be applied is endless.

I am currently playing Phantom of the Opera. WIP.
Next I might try this . . This kind of jazzy version. . with percussion.
What a gorgeous tune . .

Picnic.

Well done on your progress to date. Glad you're enjoying the process!

I've just joined a Faith No More tribute so I'm currently boning up on about 20 of their tracks. Interesting stuff.

Thanks guys for support!

@Rayblewit where in the world do you find this pure gems? You casually sprinkle them all over this forum. A decade or two from now I am going to play something like this. Still not at that level.
@CowboyNQ Epic!

AUSTRALIA! lol

A decade or two from now I am going to play something like this. Still not at that level.

I have been playing for just ONE decade . . Self taught from scratch.
"Imagine" was one of the first tunes i learnt. It will give you a sense of self pride when you accomplish it.

The tunes I play now are a little more tricky but the challenge to play them requires dedication and patience. But such an awesome feeling of achievement and satisfaction when it all comes together.

I have a hobby of collecting old sheet music and I have mountains of it.
The world of music is my oyster.

Love Music, Love Life! Ray

Faith No More

Wow! My son had their cd's.
I think punk! Maybe i am wrong. I am not familiar with their style.
You have me searching now.

Their style is not the easiest to define but they’re essentially a hard rock act with smatterings of hip hop, punk, lounge, metal and a few other eclectic things thrown in.

My PC decided that this Corona Virus Quarantine is just a perfect time for total PSU break down. No spare parts, no servicing, no nothing. But now I am finally back and on track!

My WIP is trying to look for virtual jam sessions to record with others. I would love to form a band that does the music I listen to. Problem is I don't know many people who know it or how to play it/sing it (since I listen to mostly non English music like SE and E Asian, Latin, Brazilian, Indian, and Middle Eastern). It may be easy since I live in a really diverse city with people from pretty much every country.

Google is your friend.

There are a fair number of just such virtual jam sessions online

Returns a host of potential groups.
