I've always found it easier to play from big note piano books. But not just because the songs are easier, but because it is far easier to read the huge notes and my eyes don't get confused with that. Why can't some of the...

thelondoner I understand. Well, I think the only way is using some computer software (or even just a piece of paper and a pencil) and rewrite your favourite pieces with bigger notes so you can read them easily. I know, it's not the easiest and most pleasant thing to do,...

thelondoner Clayderman? Well, it makes me smile a bit. He is good, ok, but calling him "the best pianist of all times" is a bit silly in my opinion. Personally I think Liszt will always be the best pianist ever existed. He revolutionized the piano technique and wrote the...

thelondoner I think the reason is the same why they don't usually do normal books written in big characters unless they're for children. Anyway, what do you mean when you say "reading two lines together"? If you've read piano music for 15 years it shouldn't be difficult...

And what would you play?I have about 4 favorites and two of them are known for composing for piano. But I don't play piano.So I guess I wouldn't play for them.

classical

thelondoner Oh, I would definitely not play for my favorite composers. I would never be good enough. But if I had the chance to take lessons from Liszt or Brahms or Gershwin...

thelondoner Have you ever touched a keyboard before? If you didn't, I think it will take you at least one or two years just to master the basics (I mean the simplest chords and a very little improvising), unless you're a genius obviously. If you plan to play alone, it...

Well, I'm not proud of this but when I was 16 I ran away from home (that's a whole other discussion). Long story short, I found myself spending the night in an old cemetary. There was a little abandoned train station house nearby...

thelondoner When you're famous and thousands (maybe millions in this case) of teenagers idolize you, you'd better be a positive example. If you're not, the press not only can, but MUST criticize you. When you accept to become a worldwide star, you must consider all of the...

thelondoner Mr. Burns, probably... No, I'm joking ;-) I think Homer is one of the greatest fictional characters ever created in the history of humanity. So I choose him.

thelondoner Shower 4ever!! It's faster, it's more ecological (less water wasted), and I just hate the feeling of sitting and having my skin in contact with the ceramics of the bath... It's slimy, definitely a bad feeling... The last motivation is probably something...

thelondoner So let's hope the members of the new team will be charismatic enough to compete with the figure of House: if the script focuses properly on them, the series can still have a future (and a good one, I think).

thelondoner I hated the Tritter- thing too. I think it was silly. This policeman came out of nowhere just in order to magnify House's character (as if there was any need for it) by means of psychological torture. It wasn't necessary at all, and it made the whole plot lose...

thelondoner Neither do I, piano and keyboards are used excellently and replace guitars perfectly. Songs are just great, I can't help listening to them specially when I'm in the car, they're the best soundtrack for my journeys. I think they're really talented, it's not...
