I have an upright piano to move to my new house. Do you have any recommendation of a good and reasonable mover.

I’ve always been interested but as a child I couldn’t afford it So when the wife wanted one I happily said yes Does anyone know a good teacher for adults? Can anyone recommend one willing to come over to the west ? Any tips about lessons or digital pianos in general? I bought a Kawai kdp110 for her 🙂

SINGAPORE - Mr Adam Syah, whose renditions of pop tunes on a community piano posted on TikTok have caught the public’s attention, is a self-taught player who has never owned the musical instrument. The 21-year-old student and part-time GrabFood delivery rider said he started playing around with the piano when he was in secondary school as there was one in the foyer that was made available to students. He said in an interview with The Straits Times: “Since the piano was not really used by anyone else, I had a chance to play almost every day during recess, so I could practise whichever song I was trying to learn at the time. “I would watch YouTube to learn the basic chords in a song and then figure out the melody myself.” Prior to his sessions at the community piano at Block 107 Yishun Ring Road, he had not touched a piano in at least a year, he said. He had come across the piano while he was out delivering food. “I went to send the food to the customer first, as I did not want it to get cold, and then on my way down I decided to just stop and try playing a song,” said Mr Adam, who is pursuing a diploma in fine arts at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. His first TikTok video taken at the community piano and posted on Dec 24 – of him playing the tune Rather Be by British electronic group Clean Bandit – has chalked up over 160,000 views and more than 22,000 likes. A subsequent video, in which he played the melody from Ed Sheeran’s hit Shape Of You, has garnered nearly 80,000 views and over 7,000 likes. The response has been a nice surprise, he said. Senior Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam is one of those who have commented about Mr Adam’s performances. He said in a Facebook post: “Something truly joyful about this. The undiscovered, free-spirited talent. The beauty of spontaneous jamming.” The attention Mr Adam has drawn comes after a video showing the musical talent of two cleaners at the Pandan Valley condominium estate drew many views and likes in August. The two men had chanced upon a discarded piano while taking shelter from the rain at a bin centre there. Mr Sumali Sakarwi, 64, played the piano while his colleague Rosli Samat, 49, sang in their rendition of Ku Di Halaman Rindu, a hit by Malaysian rock band Lefthanded. Mr Adam said that while he has received many comments from people encouraging him to pursue music as a full-time career, he wants to just focus on finishing his diploma studies in the next six months and enlisting for national service. He said: “I enjoy playing the piano and also my other hobbies such as playing the guitar, skateboarding and BMX riding, but for me, these activities are a way to escape and de-stress, so I would rather not turn it into a career.” His tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@morrdecai

Bros. I am starting my girl on piano classess soon. As a parent, I want to be able to support her as much as I possibly can. Those who have your kids enrolled for piano classes,are you allowed to sit in? Any parent here who took up an instrument for your kid also? as an adult learner, what are the challenges we may face? eg lack of time, stiff fingers, lack of discipline... I have zero piano knowledge. With the exception of being in the symphonic band as a trumpet player in sec sch and jc times. Any good piano teacher to recommend for young kids and also adult? do you recommend to take lessons in school or at home? looking at cristofori for my girl as its near our place. Have a Yamaha P115 if school does not work out esp this Just out in the news also https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/piano-teacher-sexual-assault-5-year-old-student-pleads-guilty-11470900?cid=FBcna&fbclid=IwAR32lAVkvi7oAuRsA3GXXJW0253Uvr5CeJzt-43TI9EJXGNdcXGQjXJkeIo this is not good at all

Yahoo news : Unbelievable 6-Year-Old Piano Player http://sg.news.yahoo.com/video/playlist/fa...-111237233.html How do you even get this good at piano at such a young age? She definitely has a bright future ahead if she keeps it up! can't remember what I am doing at 6 and she is playing piano without reading the script ...

Thinking of getting a piano for my daughter. Not too expensive as she is beginner. Budget around up to $15k tops Not looking at preowned. Any recommendations? Thanks.

Great musicians and funny video....

This is so inspiring and motivating........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7CeoUZbW3Y...feature=related

This pianist is very tok kong. Check out her other videos if you are free.

OK the other thread has some talk on pianos and how they compare to cars when it comes to mindset and mentality. Here in this video, the presenter tries to sell the Hailun baby grand piano. Notice how he doesn't talk down on Yamaha or Kawai. He recognizes these as very good brands, he compares the features of the equivalent models from each. What he is informing us is that there is a baby grand that is bang for buck for the sound it produces. Not many people know of Hailun and this is one piano brand and piano I will consider if my daughters level up.

its been yrs since i "clean" e piano, any suggestion wat to buy n DIY to get tat glossy black color again?

Hi all Would like to seek recommendations for private music teachers, for piano and violin, for children between age 7 to 10. Piano and violin grades now around 5-6. One-on-one lessons. Specifically looking for one based in Sengkang, or if not then not too far off like Hougang area, Punggol, maybe even Pasir Ris.... If you have good experience using the services of such teachers, would much appreciate your help to post their contacts here. If not convenient, then just PM me. Thanks in advance!
