If you play the piano lets turn this into a dicussion. Cheaaaaaaaaa.

[AnnahhbeL]

I play the piano.
And all of the songs you listed above too.
I really like Aicia Key's piano music. It sounds so good. I actually like Vanessa Carlton the best. Her music is so insperational.

What level are you?
I'm level 6.

[Smoogrish]

I quit piano a while ago. I didn't have the heart to keep on playing. It bored me.

[*Kathleen*]

I wish I could play the piano. Steph used to. Hrm. I don't think this belongs here. Does it?

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

i prefer the clarinet. 'cause i play first clarinet for band.
i used to play the piano when i was in like 4th grade, but i quit 'cause i had a busy schedule.
the piano's pretty cool though. i like keyboard in songs, like some of Something Corporate's.

ROFL.
KC, you dont have your AZN card, you can't talk about / play piano >:o

anyway, i hate the piano with a passion, unless it's part of some sort of good song. because i never learned to play the piano, and i personally think it's useless.

Oh you had to go there, do I have to go dig up the history books. Don't forget about Jazz (which involves use of the piano), whose only superior is classical music, which was started by you know who. Even Rock was started by a you know who with Chuck Berry and Little Richard( another black pianist). So why I gotta to be Asian yo, how come I can't be like Ray Charles or Herbie Hancock?

[AngryBaby]

ive seen some badass pianists in my time, they're all asian though

But I need one, cus you saw what Evan said.

KC, record yourself playing.
You must've improved!

Oh word, you know how I roll. I found this book on proper piano techniques and practice and it works wonders.

[Gigi]

Favourite composers include Chopin and Debussy.

I love all of Chopin's nocturnes and can play most of them, Clair de Lune, and a number of Beethoven sonatas.

Any piano in popular music is freaking awesome, too. =)

[AngryBaby]

some of the asian guys i see spaz out while their playing. im like, "whoa dude"

[sprezzatura]

I love playing Chopin's waltzes.

Romantic music is the shizz.

[mylittleMiracle]

i play the Piano. i luv Chopin and Debussy=D

[SarahxJoy]

I actually like Vanessa Carlton the best. Her music is so insperational.

I agree with you. Vanessa Carlton's piano playing is out of this world.
Some other composers I like are Mozart, Beethoven, and Yiruma.

And really two of my all time favorites to play is Fur Elise and Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven. Eeek. He's coolios, y0.

[*stephinika*]

Moved to Entertainment

I used to play...I couldn't stand practicing and stuff though so I quit. Listening to it though is quite nice.

[maryissa]

I wanna take piano lessons during Summer Break. I just love how the piano sounds. I can play the beginning of Fur Elise still trying to learn the middle. But thats it.

i can play A thousand miles on the piano (not all of it though)

[starlette]

Pianos a nice instrument. I use it for beat production when I write melodies and things like that. I don't play much piano music, but I play a mean Sound of Music and Climb Every Mountain from the sound of music. I usually just play by ear though. Like I wrote my own arrangement to the titanic song.

[*Blow_Don't_SUCK*]

I play the piano but not as good as you KC I'm more of a strings fanatic. Regina Spektor is a good pianist though.

[Paulina]

The piano is my favorite instrument.
I like Vanessa Carlton's piano music. It's always so cool in her songs.
And I like the Zanarkand song from FFX. I tried playing it but it sounds like crap.
I took lessons for 3 years from 2nd grade to 5th but then I quit for some reason.
I still play about an hour a day for fun. But I can only play 2 good songs.

[xmy_sweet_reveng...]

I like the piano, i play alot of instruments but i have to say piano is one of my favorite. we just did bohemian rhaposdy for my composition and i got to do the full sanata in A by mozart for next year. there both good songs but i have to say bohemian rhaposdy is so boaring after youve heard it too many times by rubish singers lol. Anyway, keep up the good work =).

Also with the to zanakand, it took me a while to learn it with the chords aswell, its not an easy peice to play but the trick is to just keep trying

[WHOngos144]

I play the piano.
I don't practice that much, I'm not that good.
I can play I can't stop loving you by ray charles, to zanarkand from FFX, and some song by Debussy.

[hi-C]

I used to play. I stopped two years ago, when I finished high school. My favorite composers are Erik Satie (I love his Gymnopedie series and "Je Te Veux"), Sergi Rachmaninov, and Chopin (Fantasie Impromptu, anyone?).

I just saw that "Fantasie Impromptu" is one of your favorite songs. I loooooooovvvveeeeee this song. This kid who was in a piano class in my high school was some sort of prodigy because he had only been playing piano for a year and could play the hell out of that song.

[marzipan]

oh, i love the piano! i've been playing since i was 5. my fav composer is Debussy, and now i'm playing Gardens in the Rain. the french name is really weird, jardin sous la pluie. i think that's it. anybody play that song?
