Criserl : More videos

Hello

I've collaborated with me friend Claris again as I'm currently on school break, so we thought it would be fun to do a collab.

In this first video, Claris is actually standing on my right side, hence u can't see her in the video. But u can see her standing beside me in the 2nd video!


Next up, this is actually an excerpt of Through the Night, the vocals is kinda soft as I did not have the voice recording to do an overlay, hence using a earpiece might help with the audio quality. We did not rehearsed this piece at all, this is just a fun video that we decided to throw in at the end of the day.


Do let me know if you enjoy watching collabs and want more of such content on my channel. I'll be posting more classical pieces in June so stay tuned for those.

I'm back with a new video

I haven't played an Emily Bear piece for quite awhile, so I decided why not learn one of her older compositions which is relatively simple and has a really pretty melody line.


As usual, this piece was played by ear and nope I do not have the sheet music.

I'll be uploading more videos soon, so stay tuned!!
XOXO

Another Anniversary on YT

Today marks my 5th anniversary of YouTube journey.

It is really nice to see how my playing have improve over the years and how much my techniques have matured over time.

Thanks to all who have been incredibly supportive and I'm excited to be posting more music as soon as my school semester ends in May.  😁

December update

Heyhey!!

I'm finally back after a long hiatus. The last time I blog was 6 months ago and the last time I uploaded some content was a year ago! Time flies and now I'm a freshmen in University so that means busy busy busy.



My schoolmate and I have come together to play this really nice chinese song 你,好不好? (How have you been?) by Eric. We took a few days to learn our sections and had a few test run before deciding to record it.

It was my first time collaborating with a vocalist and I've definitely learnt a lot about accompaniment work.

I'm still recording on my IpodTouch, so the quality is still pretty much the same as when I first started making videos years back. :P

I am planning to upload so classical pieces so stay tuned... Hint: Chopin

Criserl: June update

Hello everyone!

The last time I posted was at the start of 2016 and now I think it is a good time to be updating this blog.

I know I promised to be making more videos after my exams ended, however, as I am now awaiting for University to start, I've taken up a temporary full time job where I work from 8.30 am to 6.00 pm on weekdays, so that leaves me with very little time to play the piano. I continue to take piano lessons on Sundays and thus I am left with Saturday to practice piano.

I am intending to end work in mid July so that should give me about a week to learn and play something nice. Preferably something by Chopin. :) *hint a nocturne that I was previously working on*

So before I have any original music to share, I am just going to share this beautiful piece of which my friend posted the sheet music Instagram, and I totally fell inn love with it.
