Your music is awesome, i really like it. But why don't you add more videos? For example, I really want to see you playing some chopin.. Or MIDI files of your music? That would be nice.. Take care..

Hey there! : I think midi file files would be incredibly helpful (we would be so lucky). I would love an example of multi octave arpeggios connecting smoothly in and out of scales runs and with ideas towards the fingering so that the transitions are smooth. Some of the stuff that I play in that context is quite choppy in where you can here the transitions ain't smooth. I have my pet triads (shapes) that work in specific keys where it is smooth yet, I can't pull it off with other shapes that are in different keys (I'm not classically trained-self taught). My favorite example and track is "Epilogue Improvisation on a theme by J.S. Bach", from Extreme Measures. I can hear all of the shapes going by seamlessly and some moving chromatically (love the pentatonic shapes). Originally a guitarist I copped a lot of Yngwie, Bach, and Paganini etudes in the late 80s and 90's but that hasn't helped me with connecting many jumps and leaps smoothly when applying it to keys. It is easy using sweeps combined with right hand finger slides (Greg Howe and Paul Gilbert) on guitar but completely different on piano. Midi files would also allow you to slow down the phrase to any tempo to hear the connections better. That is something that is definitely lacking in the keyboard instructional method books (especially the jazz ones).
