September 18, 2011

As part of Lake Oswego High School Band's new project, here goes nothing:
Google Project 2011!

Google Project: So the Google employees are the most happy in the world. Now that's because they get to spend 20% of their work time (paid) to do their own project. Whatever they want. Sounds good. Now if only I get paid... :)

After hearing about this idea last year before summer break, I immediately wanted to learn the piano. I've never actually learned it, and playing the piano is such a useful tool. Oh well.
But it's hard to find sheet music for popular songs online that are (and this is important) free. I didn't really want to fork over any money. But I know that other musicians' hard work shouldn't be just passed out.

Still, I want to learn the piano. I'll keep at it, because this is what I really want to play: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePh44YQjdFQ From a favorite musical of mine. :)

In the end, my brother and I decided to do this together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsUAxG6c3Ws. Not on violin only, but also on flute and trumpet, each on one of the three parts. Hopefully it will turn out alright!

I've also some other ideas solely for me. I'll keep working on Apologize (OneRepublic) on the piano, since that is something that I've been working on for some time now.

So that's the idea. We'll see how it goes!
