If I were writing a liability insurance policy, I'd refuse to cover any accident that happened on it.

Here you couldn't sell a house with that -- no railings for support.

Ludwig van never looked... er... sounded this good.

Peter Buka: Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata (3rd Movement)

You should check out his YouTube page. He does a lot of public performances & covers. (Love his torn knees pants.) - https://www.youtube.com/@PeterBuka

It really amazes me that someone remember all of that and make all their fingers work independently

And think of organists, who get their feet to work independently, too!

@PalacePaul, we salute you and your tribe!

I feel honored
But to be honest I have a hard time playing from memory, I always play from the score.

That just means that you can move ten fingers and two legs independently and read at the same time!

Peter does all his playing from memory. There is no sheet music in any of his videos.

Try to wrap you brain (and your eyes) around this: Jelly Roll Morton's The Finger Breaker, played by Dick Hyman. Truly amazing.

I tried learning organ. Two different keyboards didn't faze me, but a third one and then feet? Too much.
