I almost stopped to practice regular pianopieces when I discovered keyboardsoloing with a pitchband.

I use a Triton Le with a polyphonic lead with the pitch bend set to an octave down or up.

A whole different world opened to me and it is easy to become addicted to improvising over a chordprogression on the sequencer.

Hard to hit the right notes though

Anyone else agree?

Among the great classical pianists, who has played keyboardsolos with pitchbends?

I know Vitalij Kuprij, Rick Wakeman and those guys but among the supervirtuosos like Hamelin, Libetta, Volodos?

Who has stated that he/she tried it?
