You have a high emotional capacity and you translate it wonderfully onto the keyboard (!!)

I'm a fan

And can I ask what kind of piano that was and what type of camera you recorded with? I'm looking to post some of my own recordings soon - thanks!

Where exactly was the concert if I can ask?

I used to live in Spore (still have a home there and work there on occasion) and I hadn't the faintest clue where performers could share this type of music with a receptive audience / other performers. It's always been a dream of mine to have a "jam session" with fellow musicians in Singapore...... and so far, I had only found the basement of the Ritz Carlton hotel or the display room at Yamaha Plaza Singapura  :P
