Anybody wanna see something new?

Doesn't open for me. What is it?

And welcome to the pit, I think.

[Kenny]

Well, shoot, that seems to be happening more and more...

It's a trailer for my album. Noting objectionable, don't worry.

Try it again. Maybe the site has traffic problems at certain times of the day. I'll try to get it up on MY website really soon.

I was able to hear it. Incredible piano playing. Nicely done. Wish you luck with your debut.

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

It worked from home - that is impressive piano playing. The link wouldn't load from work, where I have to deal with paranoid security dweebs in charge of the firewall.

I'm truly impressed. I never managed to get anything that sounded like music out of a keyboard. Good job! When is the CD gonna be on Amazon?

[Kenny]

Thanks a lot for the feedback...I'm anxious to get out there. It's a pretty formidable task...

It's also hard to get people to listen, so, thanks a lot.

I've thought about Amazon, and I'll have to look into that. First, though, there's a ways to go with the manufacturing of the CD. The recording has been done for a while, and the cover is done, too. But we still have to do the rest of the art design, and we'd like to make it a dualdisc, i.e., audio on one side and DVD on the other.

Hey Kenny, this is Ben, one of Schene's students at Webster. Nice to see you around here! And I enjoyed the trailer.

Folks, I go to school with this guy, and aside from the damage he inflicts on pianos, he's amazing! The trailer doesn't really do him justice.

[Jane]

Very nice playing! I'm always impressed at those people who can follow so many different rhythms and notes at one time. Four is about my limit. Good luck with everything!

[Kenny]

Thanks for your comments, Ben and Jane!

Ben: While damage has happened occasionally [once by accident as I was walking past my own old piano and hit a key and broke a string, and once when I was playing on an older piano in Nashville], the 'piano damage' thing is more a rumor than anything else, propogated a little by your teacher, apparently. Both of those incidents happened long after people were freaking out about it supposedly happening at Webster.

Thanks again!

[BigJon@Work]

I finally got to see it from your website.

Any relation to quarterback Ron?

[Kenny]

Haha, I get asked that every couple months or so. No relation, but I did appear with my parents and my older brother in some kind of commercial for Cardinals football when I was a baby...I'm going to have to ask them about that again, b/c I haven't heard the story in probably 15 years [I'm 27 now].

Thanks for watching!

Also: I've taken what Ben and a couple others have said into consideration about the brevity of the trailer...I've JUST RECENTLY started to learn html, which is how I got the trailer on my site finally. I'm going to see what I can do about getting some clips on my website really soon.

Thanks to everyone who's taken a look so far. A review by Kathy Parsons from http://www.solopianopublications.com will be coming out when the CD does in March. Here's a blurb:

"Mind-blowing, jaw-dropping, and dramatically original."

You can read the whole thing at my blog: http://kennyadbloginum.blogspot.com/2005/12/rave-review-from-solo-piano.html

Just a little update: I've been performing some of the pieces from "A Piano Saga" for more live audiences recently and the response has been great. Hopefully before long, if I can ever get organized and unswamped enough to do it, I'll have excerpts up on kennyjaworski.com.

Hope all is well for everyone is cyberland, and thanks for reading.
