Hello, Friends,
Have a safe Memorial Day Weekend!
New From Classical to Jazz Piano Live scheduled on five medias for Sat, 25 May 2024 @9 AM PST. Watch on YouTube for best picture and sound. It will be streamed to 2 FB accounts, Instagram and Twitter too. FB prone to block classical music, especially Chopin and originals. Check back for live schedules on my YouTube. I also have made a Patreon account for those who would like more personalized instruction or performances. (linktree)
I have finished the acoustic recording of the successor to The Dragon Waltz, The Phoenix Waltz. It was not easy, but done during my jaw surgery recuperation. Sneak preview maybe at the live piano performance. Re-mixing the rest of my four unpublished piano, violin, cello orchestral pieces from my Blissful and Beyond EP - In Your Heart I Stay, Beyond the Clouds, Hello Love Goodbye Rain, Blissful Enchantment. They were finished in 2020, but were not released. River Runs Through, Eternity Tonite, and Waves of my Heart on streaming platforms now were part of this collection. I originally mixed/mastered them but now doing it again. River Runs Through surprisingly got 170,000 Pandora streams without any promotion. The piano in this EP was done by Adam Ferrelli. You can see the EP's popularity on my Bandcamp. I also have more original piano, strings and orchestra works to be released..I have a conceptual idea for another EP..maybe I take time off to finish it.
My most popular YouTube shorts seem to be mostly Chopin works and the Vivaldi Winter for violin. Hope this will change because I would like to be more varied. My violin promo of What I Was Made For? was also popular on YT. This work also won the One World Music Radio, Steve Sheppard's award for best single recently. I approach 400k views on YouTube, a small milestone but YT is increasingly hard.
Wishing you a great summer!
Best,
Sharon
