p-125a The touch is absolutely amazing

Just as the thumbnail suggests, I bought a piano during the Amazon Prime Sale.

The reason I'm called an eccentric is that I have a list of things I want to do in my 30s, and one of them is to play difficult songs on the piano.
I'll talk about the others later.



This part is important: difficult songs.

By definition, playing with both hands is a prerequisite. The left hand shouldn't just be matching rhythmically, but playing independently. Why am I doing something that makes things so hard for myself? Well,

can't you just lower the bar for 'being able to play the piano' as much as you want?
Even playing just the right hand counts as being able to play. And since there's no limit to how good you can get, you might fall into a 'what's the point of getting better' mode and give up. This isn't limited to the piano, but it's a demon that haunts you when you start something new.

To keep this demon at bay,
I decided on this definition because if I'm going to do it, I want to do it properly.

To begin with, what is my skill level?
Miraculously, I played the Electone, an electronic piano, at Yamaha for a short period when I was 3-5 years old, so I can read sheet music. However, I can't play at all. (Still, that's a valuable advantage. Thanks to my parents.)

So, since I didn't play the piano originally, you might say, 'You don't know anything about touch, do you?' but I've had quite a few opportunities to touch electronic pianos, and I felt that the weight and rebound were relatively close to the real thing. Yes, I'm being pretty casual about it, sorry.

For those thinking of buying one, for your reference, it's very thick, so you can place it directly on the floor and sit and play.

It weighs about 10kg, but of course, you can also play it on a stand. Compared to the usual price, during the sale, it was about 38,810 yen with about 2,000 points back, so if you're thinking of getting one next time, I think it's worth taking the plunge.

I'm practicing like crazy right now, so I'm thinking of writing a note to commemorate it once I can play.
My favorite song is 'Akuma no Ko' by Ai Higuchi, so I guess it has to be this one.
