I though I'd share some of my piano videos and encourage you to do the same with any of your music, if you have something you'd enjoy sharing. This morning I recorded three of my Christmas songs. I hope you like them!
O Holy Night:
Good Christian Men Rejoice:
Waltz of the Flowers (From the Nutcracker): (This one isn't quite as good as the others. xD)
TIP: Try to record just your hands on the piano keys and not show your face, like I did.

Thanks girls, I really appreciate it! I'd love to hear your songs if you can post them! It's too bad you don't have a video camera, Ley.

You play absolutely beautiful Rachel! I played the songs you recorded of yourself playing for my parents while we made Christmas cookies today, and we all love them.
Does singing count as part of a recital? I can try a carol or two.

You sound beautiful Rachel!
And Ley, do you have a webcam? You could film yourself using that.

Thank you so much, I'm honored! *blushes*
Of course singing counts! I'd love to hear!

Those are so great Rachel!!! I especially loved Good Christian Men Rejoice - that's one of my favorite Christmas songs and you played it, and them all, so well!
I'll see if I can play or sing for a couple videos.

Sarahthegeek: I do, but it's horrible, horrible quality and I don't think it'd pick up the sound too well.

I wrote a Christmas song! It's really conservative political-wise though, so I won't post it unless y'all think I should.

I'll have to do it after Christmas. We're going out of town tomorrow and I won't be back 'til after Christmas. I'd do it right now except that I'm supposed to be packing and I don't want my mom to get mad at me.

I post them by uploading them to youtube as unlisted so only people that I share the video with can watch it. I can give you more specific instructions if you want.

Yeah, I only use mine for uploading videos to share with our family and now for TLF. Youtube creeps me out, so many inappropriate videos. xP
