Melody in the left hand [17 Dec 2009|02:20pm] pianists [eku_girl83] I was wondering if any of you had any tips for how to practice a piece where the melody is in the left hand. I've played piano for many years, but this is something I still struggle with. I'm so accustomed to trying to bring out the melody in the right hand that it becomes a huge problem for me when the music calls for the reverse. Short of playing right hand over left hand, what can I do to improve this skill? I've recorded myself playing this piece and you can hear the melody a little, but you have to really be listening for it. It's not nearly as clear as it needs to be. Thanks for any help! 9 comments|post comment

Alvaro Torres Debuts At #3 On Billboard's Latin Christian Sales Chart [08 Dec 2009|02:20pm] youngcatholic [musicdish] Url: http://www.bigdreamchristianmusic.com/ NASHVILLE, TN (Dec 2009) - Big Dream Christian Music/Indie Extreme recording artist, Alvaro Torres debuted his newest album, Muy Personal, at #3 on the Billboard Latin Christian Sales Chart. Alvaro is thrilled with the initial success of his first spiritually inspired album because it is different from his previous works. CEO of Big Dream Christian Music, Jorge Tarajano, says, "We are blessed and fortunate for the overwhelming welcome and reception of Alvaro's music in the Christian Ministry." The city of Miami, Florida, and Puerto Rico have shown their ongoing support for Alvaro. People from these areas have listened to Alvaro's music for years and share a strong personal bond with him. Alvaro's Muy Personal is reaching a new audience through the Christian industry, and unsurprisingly still adored by his huge fan base. The veteran musical artist has won awards and earned numerous Gold and Platinum records in the past, and hopes to achieve the same with this album. After being involved in a tragic single car auto accident where one person died and all were badly injured, Alvaro realized the power of God. The incident became the inspiration for this album's title and songs because God had approached him in a "very personal" manner. Alvaro is known for his array of love songs, and is now creating songs dedicated to the love of God. post comment
