Hello, I am a pianist with asperger's syndrome. Went to Brandon University in Canada to take Piano Performance and I will never forget how nerve-wracking those recitals were. Tried to make a living performing, but I think people were turned off by my lack of social skills more than anything. I have decided to make my own fate by recording over 50 videos on youtube of all different types of music. I have 30 subs right now and would really like more! If anyone is on youtube on this website, sub to me today...lots of performances are yet to come! I have included 5 of my better and more popular performances on here:

Billy Joel Piano Medley:

Very nice. I wish I had been able to continue with the piano when I was younger. The Tetris song is actually a variation of a Russian folk song called "Korobeiniki". It's about a merchant who falls in love with a maiden and they meet each other in a field at night, or something like that.

Hey!

I play as well; I agree with you about the nerves at recitals, but I still always got some morbid charge from performing, no matter how nervous I got. :D

I've arranged the overworld theme from Mario 1, and did't really think to include the coin collection and one-up sound FX.... hah, nice! There's one thing I do include, however, and you may want to throw it in for fun in the middle somewhere... and that is the "pause / restart" tone! :wink:
But I realize I'm strange!

P.S. Sonic is awesome... try a Jamaican-style version of the "Chemical Plant" theme.... hehe, fun! :D
