Retired, lots of free time. Listen and watch you play for hours. I’m hypnotized and relaxed. Thanks for sharing your talent.

[@LiberaceProtege]

I really appreciate your videos. All of them. They're just excellent.

[@rubiks7891]

Your voice is very relaxing like Bob Ross😂. I enjoy your playing very much.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Sadly I can’t paint like Bob.

@@LeighWilbraham Maybe in our world we can imagine the sun and the sea as we listen to the melody 😊If it's good for Bob's paintings it's good for music

[@juanpianoman]

Latin needs a lot of sabor! U have to do it yourself with samples it’s worth it

[@alymak]

Best Bolero, Rhumba and Beguine style are here in this instrument Genos II

[@ManuelHernandez-bg8bl]

I love Bolero Lento! Been using that since my Tyros2. Great for a Latin song "Cuando Llegue el Final"

[@GaryMCurran]

Again, thank you for part 2 of the Latin styles. I am looking forward to the Jazz, Ballroom, Movie & Show, and Easy Listening, if you get around to those and record a video for them. I have another question for you. As I said previously in another reply, the Genos has, and continues to be a great keyboard for the soloist or duo team who are out playing small clubs, dinner music, small shows. Of the styles you've played so far, what kind of percentage of them do you think are aimed at a specific song? I've said previously that my musical taste goes from the 30s through the 60s and some of the 70s, but the Great American Songbook, Jobim, and 'Easy Listening.' I realize that most people today are not interested in that kind of music (unless you're playing a retirement home!). So, what I would like to know is of the styles you've played so far, what percentage of them are primarily designed around a specific song or artist? By the way, have I told you recently that you are an amazing player, and I wish I had your talent and your ear. I also wish that I had studied a lot more when I was a kid!

[@aszandek]

Well, that's great! thx.

14:38 PopCumbia, Favorite Style :D

[@ManuelHernandez-bg8bl]

Are you able to remove the vocals on the Latin intros? Latin chants are not always appropriate. Also can you turn of certain tra ks during intro or ending?

[@LeighWilbraham]

You can edit the styles if you wish.

[@mesparky9]

Yamaha really struggle with Cuban styles. Specifically salsa and guajira. Although there is an authentic one, I think from tyros 1 or2. Great video Leigh.

[@LeighWilbraham]

I do admit i dont play a lot of this sort of music but the style is so busy i wouldnt know where to jump in - you know when you were a child and your friends twirled the skipping rope and expected you to jump in and start skipping - i always got caught up in the rope, and this is the same. I just dont feel it when i play using the cuban stuff.

[@ManuelHernandez-bg8bl]

Guajira! Carlos Santana does that song in a minor. Very Realistic!

[@franckrobert282]

👏

[@michellegault3637]

You don't seem to be interested in all latin styles Am I wrong. In other words its not all styles of genos 2 which are good.

[@LeighWilbraham]

Hi Michelle, this style of music isnt my favourite and isnt one i'd choose to play for my own enjoyment plus im not the target customer for this sort of music.

[@iq5631]

How about covering the Indian & Bollywood styles ,please 😂
