Episode 16 - The Expanse
Ever wondered how a reluctant jazz attendee ends up enjoying a night of live music? That's exactly what happened to me, David Reidy, and I’m here to share all the unexpected musical twists and turns from my latest adventures. From sitting out Devi's annual student showcase and promising to perform next year to discovering a newfound appreciation for jazz at the Live at the Village event in Springwood, my musical journey has been anything but predictable. I’ll also give you the inside scoop on the Leeds International Piano Competition and how platforms like YouTube and Medici TV are transforming the way we experience these grand events. Thanks to my wonderful piano teacher Devi, my musical tastes are expanding, leading me to explore new genres and even buy tickets to the Blue Mountains Music Festival!
In this episode, I also dive into my practice sessions, specifically focusing on Nino Rota's "A Time For Us" from Franco Zeffirelli's "Romeo and Juliet." I discuss the progress I’ve made with the first nine and a half bars and the challenges I’m facing with a tricky run of sixths. Using the NV-10 with the SK-EX Concert Grand setting has been a revelation for my practice, and I'll be reintroducing PianoTek software into my setup soon. Join me as I reflect on how learning piano has not only honed my skills but also connected me to a wider musical community, enriching my life in ways I never expected.
