I periodically record myself to make checkpoints in my musical development and also so that I can hear where I’m at musically compared to where I’m headed. Usually my recordings are audio only, but this time I thought I would make one specifically for YouTube (just for you mom). So I set up the camera last night and hit ‘record’. This is what came out.
The next time I do this I’ll film during the day and sing into a mic as well. Piano by itself (like this clip) is fine, but lacks the focus that a vocal melody line can bring.
It was night, so the video is dark. The piano is out of tune. I make more than a few playing mistakes. And you can hear my kids in the background from time to time. But that’s all OK with me. I’m not selling it, it’s just for fun. I’ll likely to a better job next time.
I don’t expect anybody to sit and watch the whole thing. But I hope you enjoy a little bit of it anyway. Let me know what you think.
