@Pianoteqenthusiast -- Thank you so much for your kind and generous comments.

@Gaston -- My hands feel old and worn out too, and have never been suitable to play piano or any instrument that requires finger-length and span, but I enjoy music too much to quit right now I suppose.

Hello Stephen_Doonan! You have your own unforgettable style of great value, because I haven’t heard anyone else play like you. This Arabesque 1, is a piece with highly decorated melody, I’m looking at the picture of the tree (very suitable for the music) and in my mind the leaves begin to move as you play.It is like your music inscribed in the movements of the leaves. Well, that’s how I feel. Thank you!
Can we have a number 2?

Hi Stephen,
Definitely this year starts with top class quality, between "Embacle" from Bernard and your "Arabesque" !
(If there are any mistakes, I haven't noticed them... )

Your video is very instructive.
If someone would play your piece he could even pick up and write down your fingerings.
(but not me, my fingers are way too worn out... )
