"gliss"

Today I learnt something new.

I was playing "truth" (planned to play all versions actually *different arrangements!*) when I saw the word 「gliss」on the next page's song (Kaze no Mukou e/the intro). Actually I've often see this word on various piano sheets/books but never cared enough to look up for its meaning. When I finally did today :

"OH!"

*remembers that charming part of Sho's piano rendition of "Hatenai Sora"*

So I tried it out and... WHOA. Painful!

LOL. I realised this is the painful part of playing the piano. 

Then I googled for a less painful way to play glissando on piano. And I found it here. *useful tips!*

Scales again *happy*

I never thought I could be this happy seeing scales again~ It has been months & I've started hating the song I have yet can play nicely XD

Ahh.. but G4's scales & arpeggios look difficult T_T

Miss C want me to start from the arpeggios today.. the fingering part baffled me initially but when my piano teacher explained it's practically the same, it suddenly looks easy. LOL

Oh. I've seen Arashi's "Training Camp"!!! Love the sight of Arashi + piano. And WHOA. I was impressed by Sho's piano rendition of "Hatenai Sora". For a moment I forgot that this is the Sho who always fail athletically (on their variety shows anyways, I don't know how athletic he is in real life XD) , he looked so kakkoi ~ I love his arrangement! 

That scene made me feel ashamed though, as an Arashi fan... sigh. I want to play like that!!!

Bonus. Satoshi attempted to play Nino's solo "Niji" on piano XD. I bet he always play that whenever he sees a piano or keyboard nearby 'cos it did sound like he practised/played that melody a lot! hehehe... He can't play, I know that, but somewhat..I think he will do well if he makes efforts to learn XD (I was actually amazed by that creepy tune he played cheekily in the end XD)

Hopefully someone will offer him a role that requires him to play the piano *starts daydreaming*...
