Post by: lauenceholley on December 28, 2007, 06:28:31 AM

I have been reading posts by all the beasts on this website, chevonee, tblock, pianowiz, cas10a, diverse, mysteryman, darkwing, ferrente,val215 and many others. I am learned so much from this site. I have included two midi files, may I have a critique of them , one is I Love You Lord Today and the other is a new composition. I have included them in this post.

Wow, it seems like you got the pattern of "I Love You Lord Today" down pat.  I would work on being smoother and more confident of the next chord you gonna play.  This is a great start, just keep practicing.

Hi Tblock and B3, when you say this needs to be smoother are the chords too  stacatto ? I dont use pedal at all, should I use pedal more ? Thanks again for your time and feedback, you guys are my hero's, I read and devour all of your posts.

Yes, you should use your pedal more.  Your chords sound good as you play them, but if you used a sustain pedal, it would sound even better by drastically improving the smoothness of your chords.
