April 15, 2026 EDIT: "Play 'Over the Rainbow' Your Way" is now live! Click to listen. You can continue to use this thread to discuss your preparation of the...

ShiroKuro OK, apologies for derailing the thread, but now I can't resist... any excuse to post a link to this great song:

rsl12

ShiroKuro There are a lot of songs in that list that could fit into the "Blues or Traditional" category (the June PIYW, which we'll be voting on soon). Coincidentally, I had already put "You are my sunshine" into the suggestion box. If there are any other tunes you'd like to learn, you should add more suggestions. (You too @Nightowl)

ShiroKuro

rsl12 I added Amazing Grace and I second You Are My Sunshine. 🙂

Reminder that we have 2 weeks left to submit for Over The Rainbow!

rsl12

Two weeks and only one submission so far! Congratulations to @Sophia, who has been living struggle-free for more than a month now!

Sophia

Haha that is mainly because I chickened out on anything but the kiddie version 😃 But... I know we have had at least two forum participants who recorded Over the Rainbow for a previous recital. Are you guys recording it again or submitting your previous version? I'm sure both would count, right @rsl12?

Yes, that's allowed. The more the merrier!

WieWaldi Is it okay, if I post a video of someone else playing my version?

Why don't you invite him over here? Then he can play his piece his way, and you can play his piece your way.

WieWaldi

I am very jealous of Sophia, because I am still struggling with the version I want to play.

Nightowl

WieWaldi Ha ha ha, as long as they're playing it "your way" - that's the main thing! 😂

Sophia

WieWaldi Well, that is about the most brilliant idea I have read in a long time 😁 There is no quicker, smoother and more convenient way to share our progress --> perfect!

WieWaldi

Nightowl Sure. He is playing it exactly as I would, if I could.

Nightowl

WieWaldi So, if he's playing it your way, there should be no problem! 🙃

Sophia

rsl12 Why don't you invite him over here? Then he can play his piece his way, and you can play his piece your way.

Ha! I simply knew you would come up with a suitable solution ^_^

rsl12

By the way everyone, APRIL FOOLS! We aren't really doing "Over the Rainbow" for April. I hope everyone is relieved!

Emery

Hi everyone, good to see some old "faces" as I made my way here from PianoWorld. So how does the recital work? I'm not seeing any submissions on this thread. Are user submissions made somewhere else? Thanks.

Emery Welcome and good to see you here! Yes, you found the other thread. You can submit over there using the template. 🙂

WieWaldi

Emery In this thread, we talk about the piece, about arrangement, about difficulties, learning issues and some brag about being the first who committed.

For submitting your piece, go to this thread: https://forum.pianotell.com/d/2264-piyw7-submission-thread. (Linked in the 1st post of this thread as well)

The submission thread is locked and nobody can see your post until @rsl12 opens it up at 15th of April.

OMG, today is already the 9th - only 6 days left. 🙀

Edit:
Welcome to PianoTell

Emery

Thanks Navindra. Did you create this forum? Nice job. I had a PHP forum once but the database got corrupted and I couldn't resurrect it. Glad to see this one is running well!

navindra

Emery Yes indeed! We’ve been up for almost two years now. Fortunately, we’ve been solid so far and I have reliable backups and a robust restoration strategy in place. 🤞

WieWaldi OMG, today is already the 9th - only 6 days left. 🙀

Yikes! I will be throwing something together at the last minute as usual...
