Piano

At home I use Yamaha upright pianos. I feel like I don't deserve a grand or baby grand.

I took my first few lessons in 1987, as a senior in high school. I didn't get very far.

I love this instrument so much.

I practice technique for 30 minutes every day, late morning. Alternate between Hanon and Schmitt.

At night, I play the 32 Beethoven sonatas, in order of publication. This is the greatest music ever written. I'm astonished by the quantity and consistency of the feeling of spiritual climax in these pieces. I'm sight-reading, but because I've been doing this since 2015, I've probably played them each 5-10 times. So they're starting to feel pretty familiar.
