So, the 'key' to learning the piano is "practice"! Yes, Baby Angel, this means YOU! And practice does not mean stumbling through a piece once with your eyes fixed on the 'keys', totally ignoring the piece of music in front of you. Nor does it mean thumping the 'keys' in frustration every time you hit a bum note. Furthermore it does not include breaking into 'Have Mercy On the Criminal' or 'Heart and Soul' every time the Minuet you are murdering fails to retain your attention.
No, the 'key' to practice is perseverance and repetition to the point of insanity; that of those around you I mean. Seriously though, I love listening to 'Carefree Boogie' played as if it were being churned through a mincer. Or 'That Song' being hammered to within an inch of a Year 8 Shop(Woodwork) class project. However, I think my favourite is a rendition of the Mazurka as performed by a group of 'berserkers' whilst impaling themselves on their own swords.
No, no darling, its lovely ....really!
No, the 'key' is just more practice.

very cool. I love the pic!
What an awesome perspective! I've been racking my brain trying to figure out how to take this theme. Don't worry, I won't steal your idea! :)
Nice picture, too! :)
What a great idea for a key shot! And a great shot makes it even better!
I love piano shots. My little one loves to play on our keyboard. I should try and photograph him doing so!
Great take on key! I so wish I had learned to play the piano when I was young!
Oh, Arizaphale, I LOVE this! Both the creative interpretaion of "key" and the awesome picture itself. fantastic!
That is great. I hated the piano when I was little. My sister became the musician in the family. Great lessons for them, though.
What a great shot, and a great interpretation of the theme. Fun!
Thank you for visiting my site! Your blog is great, I love your writing style!
