      Thank you so much for your kind words! Music Made Easy is only 4 months old, so the subscribers I have are very valuable to me. You, along with the others, are the base of what I hope will become a large subscriber group. But, for now, I am grateful to you for being #633!! I reply back to all comments on my channel, so make sure to leave comments on my other videos too!

    I understand your position on piano lessons. I studied piano for 8 years at a very traditional and recommended music school in Montevideo - Uruguay. I could only play classical music. I used to do daily exercises for hours. My technique was great, also my frustration. When I started college, it was difficult to reconcile so many hours for music with many hours of studying technology. I chose technology! Loved your video! Congrts!

    I really like the story behind your logo. It's cool that you've had it for so long.
    I would agree, it is a lot more fun to create music than to read music. Reading music is a very useful skill but often instructors can neglect the creative aspect of music while teaching how to read. Perhaps something I need to remind myself a bit more when I teach. Music should be a fun experience even though practicing can be a bit tedious at times. Great vid Ben!

    Girls the ultimate motivation 🤣 for dudes to. Learn to play the piano. I am 56, damaged my hands and are forced to reinvent myself music is an outlet not a feasible income replacement but a great form of therapy. I have tried to down load notes for these songs I am a child of the classic love songs . I don't learn by reading more by applying the notes by ear, and repeating over. .....again.Great videos you should have a ton more of watchers. I am not getting any younger,Would appreciate notes then practice and repeat.thanks get great storyline.
