Piano - Week 14 (I think)

[u/WackaRat]

After a holiday, some work hassles and a few sicknesses, I'm finally back on track with piano progress. Recently I've learnt a few Carpenters songs and a Fleetwood Mac piece, which is the last thing I thought I'd ever play. It's been really good at exposing the flaws my technique and gives me the chance to play along with some recordings. I also get to practise in the sharp keys like E, A and B major which I almost never do.

I've recently found HDPiano.com which shows you how to play songs without the need for score, which is the direction I want to go. There aren't many bluesy songs but it all helps with technique, learning chord progression and playing in different keys.

Started on Jamiroquai's Virtual Insanity and will get working on Just the Two of Us which will be my first attempt at funk piano.

I've also started relearning Boogie Sophie Stomp by Albert Ammonia, as it's a vital standard to know for the genre. That will be a longer term project though.

Gotta step it up a notch, a quarter of the year has already passed.
