PS Competition
on: January 13, 2013, 10:25:32 PM
Hi All. -

For anyone who doesnt know (those who dont peruse the students corner), a bunch of us have had ourselves a small contest. Results are to be decided in part by voting and there hasnt been a whole lot of votes as yet with only a few days to go so I'm posting a link to the performances here.

If you would be willing to take the time to listen and place a vote that would be most appreciated by all those involved.

Full details here - https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?topic=49444.0

Thanks,
AJ

I've been away and so much is going on here!  This idea of pianostreet competition is really geniale!  Was this the first round?  How about something for the over 60 crowd...

Partly a joke, partly serious, but there is a nice piano solo arrangement of the Beatles' When I'm Sixty-Four that sounds challenging enough for all ages. ;)
P.S.: The notes are available for free. Just have a look in the guy's YouTube profile on how to get it.
