They asked us readers to send their video a few months ago and I sent it without hope, given that many professionals have done the same. Instead they agreed to publish my video as the first in the section 'Give us a tune' even though I play an entry level digital piano with Pianoteq and I'm a simply amateur....
It's really true that with hard work and dedication you can get anywhere.
That's the link to the video:

Congratulations Carmelo! Very good performance. Pianist Magazine, Wow!
I am happy for you. Nice you share your satisfaction, it makes me feel happy too.
In your first post you asked me ” ….How many hour do you study ?”
I answered that,
I also stopped playing when I was young! The teacher said I would never be a pianist.... But I had to accompany the children's songs at school as a teacher and then I started to learn more myself. Is self-taught. Now I play both Pianoteq and Organteq as an amateur, and have collected 632 videos on Youtube so far and it's growing all the time.
Playing about two hours every day, Pianoteq and Organteq and almost everything I upload to the forum via youtube. But as an old man now, some years to 80, I have got a bit stiff fingers and hook on little fingers..Created the Yourbe account for the possibility to take part in the Video Contest every year (they announce it here). But now yt it is becoming my library
Nice to meet you Carmelo. Hope you take part in the contest too, when they announce it (october/November about)
Keep going!
Best wishes,
