Thank you, I’ve never gotten so many congrats before in my life :) it makes me feel good about all the hours I’ve put into piano, and it’s a huge motivator to keep practicing!
So after spending the day frolicking I eventually decided to edit my next video! I'm so happy with how this one turned out and, if you can't tell, I'm so much more relaxed.
Skip to 01:18 for the recital
Thank you so much to my beautiful mutuals and anyone that watched/reached out to me after the last one! I really enjoy making these for you all and I hope you enjoy them too!
