smperris @joshsharp It's good to have goals :)
smperris @RuthEllison It's just practice (but the really cool pieces take lots!) My wife's a piano teacher so I see students progression all the ... ...
smperris After all the YouTube links, I'm being driven crazy 'cos I can't remember the name of that one Vanessa Williams song from the 80s. Lazyweb?
