Mozart

[jmao]

Wanna know once and for all if you're in front of a good or a mediocre pianist? MAKE HIM/HER PLAY MOZART!!!!!!!

Vonderful, Vonderful.

You ask and answered.

Tank you very much.

[jmao]

Hey... are you making laugh of my spelling?

[barnowl]

No.

You don't know a jewish dialect when you see it? 

I don't make fun of grammar or spelling. Many of our Piano Street-ers
are not from the U.S. So making fun of someone's English would be
terrible.

So true...
I interviewed new advance student the other day. What would you think I chose to play to impress her? Mozart. I CAN'T believe she wrote me a check.

[ingagroznaya]

I sucked!!!

that's because practcing mozart probably sucks, too.  i mean, my neighbors cringe when i get the book out.  i want to go through the entire thing everytime - but i stop myself.  i think - would the neighbors all get together and barbecue me?  even kids hate hearing mozart.  it's too - passe.  kind.  gentle.  they want to hear something with a loud beat.  i've got to expand into pop a little more so the kids will think i'm more 'with it.'

Jmao, you can not play him decently I would imagine, but thank you for rubbing it in.

My digital piano has 50 songs wired in, I can play any or all at will, like a jukebox.

My wife and I babysit our identical twin grandchildren who are going on 9 months. Last Sunday they were here visiting with their Mom. For the heck of it, I put on K.545 - just the 1st movement. The kids flipped out. Same with Alla Turca, and Wolfie's K.1.

Babies love Mozart.

As a child, I didn't rate Mozart music very high. It seemed so childish to me   

With the years I found out, that some of Mozart's works aren't that bad

Kind of witty. I enjoyed your post.
