I think you have large hands with a massive stretch. Lovely video.

[@laszlomanuelpinter8708]

There can never be too much Lounge style piano atmosphere in the world : D Looking forward to digging into this material. I also hope it won't be an issue to follow the notes/chords without a virtual keyboard

[@Gjermund-Sivertsen]

Thanks. No, it will be easy to follow the chords/etc with the new setup. The videos are recorded in 60fps, so you can slow them down and study exactly what was played 😀

[@AlexanderMuchin]

[@jimkangas4176]

Excellent. I'm a guitarist (with lounge style piano-envy), and most of these tricks will work. A great example of not what you play but how you play!

[@andrepechio]

Thanks for the tips! The way you play the Lounge style is fantastic. The tune you played in the end is really really beautifuly arranged. Congratulations.

[@Gjermund-Sivertsen]

[@graysonjurado4128]

I have a question, how do you know what keys to play that it doesnt sound off or choppy. i,e your playing a melody then you hit that wrong note that sound totally off. What did I do Wrong.

[@Gjermund-Sivertsen]

Thank you for your question. You've simply got to know all the 12 keys in and out. That might take several years to learn well. I used to be afraid of playing in certain keys, but then I realized that it is not harder/easier to play in one key over another. It only depends how much time you have spent playing in the various keys.

[@lindafuria2889]

Is that a PASK keyboard?

[@Gjermund-Sivertsen]

Yes, sort of. A DS5.5 See my latest video about it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipfHf6uYfdGSapI
