Sounds great the way you are doing it. I agree that the left hand lyricism would be lost if played more aggressively.

Thanks for your feedback!

This Scriabin prelude is awesome! Great lesson with you - are you also teaching? 😏

[@JonathanGeffnerPianist]

Thank you! Yes, I have taught piano on and off ever since I was a teenager - about two hundred years ago. 😄 My main career is ventriloquism plus I am a film maker, novelist, screenwriter, Yiddish teacher/translator plus a few other things, so my piano playing has been sporadic over the years - I actually barely played for many years - but I nearly always had a few students.

And I still can't do the hoochy koochy or the choochy to it... or even the scrioochy. Why did Scrabble write it like this? Because he's a mashiggener 🤪😜. How would I attempt it play it? I wouldn't even try. I'll stick to the board game.

[@TrilloSuede]

Have you tried the Screechy?

[@caroleshawsandground6438]

​​@@TrilloSuedeHell no! I must give it a try. It might solve all my problems. I could do 6 steps and then 5. But I lose track after 5....

[@caroleshawsandground6438]

Oy vey. You're tsedreying mir dem kop. I can't count more than 5 in one go. Hey presto, you've driven mir crazy 🤪.

So how do you count sheep when you can't sleep?

[@caroleshawsandground6438]

I just keep counting back and forward to 5. That's so boring, I fall asleep 😴 straightaway.

[@JonathanGeffnerPianist]

@@caroleshawsandground6438 I need to try that. I have so much insomnia that I should probably just count one sheep incessantly.

[@caroleshawsandground6438]

Sounds good to me and definitely better than playing Scrabble... unless you're a masochist.

[@SpinnerDethrage]

Have you ever thought about teaching?

[@TrilloSuede]

I've been teaching piano since I was a teenager, off and on through the years.

[@JonathanGeffnerPianist]

I replied in my alter ego's account, so now I'm replying in this account that yes, I teach piano!
