I can't say much more than a little feedback.
It is really nice. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and now will listen to it again.
Thanks.

You won't be a beginner for long 8) People underestimate the value of being able to learn and improvise, and enjoy playing music, not concerned beyond the moment. Each day has enough trouble, so each day should also have enough music. The piano sounds nice, and is recorded well, without visible recording gear. I hope you have a practice area that has no restrictions. My old Alesis QS8 'synth' has weighted piano action keys and good piano sounds, but also a headphone jack to protect my wife's sleep schedule :wink:
Cheers

Thanks.
I totally agree. Music, at whatever level one can play, brings so much joy (at least to the player. The listener might tell a different story).
I always loved music, but never learned to play an instrument. A few months ago I said, what the hell, I'm gonna get myself a piano. And it's been so much fun. It's a wonderful, creative way to take a break from the job.
My Clavinova is old but works perfectly, and I love it. Thanks to Linux (and this forum) I was able to get a setup that works well for me.
Luckily enough, I live alone, so I can play anytime.

That's pretty good by any standard. For a beginner it is very good!
