"My only equipment is a Canon Power shot S95 camera which records the video and sound and I'm downloading to Wondershare Filmora 9, where I do the editing. That's it...very simple." Intro music is from my CDs.
For the 3 pianos I use on my videos, I have a 1905 rebuilt Mason and Hamlin Model AA,
6' grand piano, '72 Yamaha Upright, and a Roland RD 300nx Digital Piano. All are great instruments, so I hope you enjoy their sound. Please write to me anytime.
