YES! very nice, i went through some other pieces on your soundcloud account and I must say you are a good pianist! You also seem to be adding your own character... Quite inspiring and I hope to be able to play like you some day...

May I ask how long you have been playing the piano?

Thanks! I've been playing for, well more years than I would like to admit to--let's just say most of my life. It's my profession.

I would just say work hard and see where it takes you. If you love it, then never stop practicing and learning. It will be worth it no matter what. After all is said and done--it's about "self enrichment."
