I got the opportunity to do something less than .0001% (totally made up percentage, but it’s really small) of the people in HISTORY of the world have done.
And I am not quite sure how I feel about it.
Over the Holidays we (wifey and I) were at a friends house enjoying some holiday cheer.
This friend happen to have a grandpa (now passed away) who had been a paratrooper in WW2.
Hitlers war.
And we got to look into his box of memorabilia first hand.
There were pictures that made my stomach churn and gave me a sense of emptiness that is hard to describe.
There were also images of the city of Berlin completely devastated like a private Ryan movie scene. Her G-pa standing on a pile of rumble with buildings crumbled on all sides.
I couldn’t even imagine how something like that could get rebuilt.
Everything in black and white, which reflected the mood for sure.
And there was this rock (green marble) and a small piece of fine glass.
Her G-pa happened to be a part of the group of soldiers who raided Hitlers office.
While there, they smashed up his desk (green marble) and chandelier hanging high above.
And this was what I was holding in my hand.
A piece of the desk and chandelier of one of the most evil people in history.
Needless to say I was perplexed on how to feel.
So I put it away.
But in the end I felt thankful that I was able to at least experience this rare piece of history. Good or bad.
Some experiences are so rare they leave you almost breathless.
Like the first time your hands start moving on their own when practicing the piano.
And like the first time you play a song (one you love) all the way through.
Holding a piece of Hitlers desk may be pretty rare.
But playing piano like you have always dreamed doesn’t have to be.
That you can do on your own with the right guidance.
And that’s what I do.
I give you the guidance to be able to do the following:
*Effortlessly add the left hand to any song. This is what will take a skinny sounding song and make it full, rich, and warm.
*Make the piano sound seamless. This simple trick is what separates beginners from advanced players and will make you long to sit down at the piano and play for hours.
*Create amazing fills even if you don’t read music or know what you are doing. This is the easy way to fool people into thinking you have been playing for years.
*And about a million other things…
