I would love to, I need to get my instruments from the attic as my mum hides them because she finds it so annoying that I play really loudly and disturb the house lol. :tongue: and wow I've never heard of it, I've tried a few programmes but they sound horrendous when I make a beat so I just forget about it.


Haha, it's on Raspberry Pi's and I've heard what other people have done with it and it sounds good; whether I'm of that calibre is another question entirely :tongue:

Haha aww no! Thing is though, I literally know nothing! How did you do at AS? (if you don't mind me asking)


Last year it averaged out as a C at A2, trying to up it

I think @Supersaps recommended me Ludivico Einaudi the other day????

I'm more into Chopin, Debussy, Grieg, etc a bit predictable....I've discovered John Fields fairly recently (embarrassingly) and who is not too well known generally, though was like an English Chopin and Chopins greatest influence apparently. He invented the Nocturne as we know it. You should have a listen!



Will do.

Thanks. :u:

Ahh I see, yeah I got a C overall at AS last year, and same, I'm retaking C1 and C2 this year. So many exams :tongue:
@stefano865



Einaudi is one of my favourites! He's got something for everyone, I think. He's great for beginners because his music isn't so highbrow but he's brilliant for more experienced listeners to as he has some great ideas.

I can't explain how this makes me feel but the world being a good place is a thread of it.

Which are your favourites?

I'm retaking C1 and S1 too :tongue:

Got 10 exams, 1 isn't maths :bawling:
Also, going to give a shout out to Elgar and Holst, my home boys.

Bach soo good. What that man couldn't do with an organ isn't worth talking about

I am not :3 but my brother and my sister both play piano so I am a piano fan :ahee: ( as a listener :biggrin: )

Are you a musician ?


You should ask them to teach you! You probably have it in your genes if they can do it!

That title sound so intimidating, as if you're going to handcuff me to a chair and rip out my fingernails or some other torture a criminal genius might employ.

It was the whole perms and combs thing I couldn't do :lol:

And how is the Further Maths? It looks really hard

Fun and dangerous. It can deprive you of life when there's too much of it :frown:


Aww that is true, I once nearly bought some to play with but I realised I would get addicted.

Are your siblings any good?

Can you sing? I can play instruments but my singing sounds like a fire in a pet shop.

I also like Nuvole Bianche a lot. :biggrin:


'Islands' - Essential Einaudi is a fantastic album. :excited:

'Berlin Song' is probably my favourite.
