Think your upright piano is holding you back ? Think again. Here's one attached to Valentina Lisitsa in a small hall in what I think I can safely describe as sub-optimal conditions. This is a small charity gig she did for refugee support groups.

So it's official : it's not the piano, it's the player (alas :-) ). Back to practice for me, I guess.

When will be a new "midi" ptq parameter to "improve" the game of those of us who still have some progress to do in the way of using a keyboard?
Virtual or not piano are all insufficient since they require work to pianists .. a scandal!

My dear Bruno, they already have a feature to improve the sound : loading a Midi file by someone else. I need to use it all the time.

Indeed
Valentina - my favorite. And this particular Youtube video ... well, she makes prima donnas look like ... well, prima donnas!!!
Ha!

No need for any of you to make an FXP of this old clunker of a piano. Yes, it's Valentina and a public piano that just had it's Big Break (and looks like it never had good days). A deserved moment of glory after a hard life, I guess.
Time to move that condition slider way over towards the right and practice with that ? Hmmm... maybe not.

I am in denial . . . . . .
Valentina is great. She can make even a old out tune piano sounds charismatic.
I wonder how she keeps such finger speed in the cold.
