    Your use of chromatics


    creates such a
    romantic sense of
    dissonance and anguish!

    More
    chromatics
    equals more
    dissonance!

    Your melodic line is so


    long and developed I
    love the way it stretches
    traditional structures!

    on a piano. I can
    play anything in
    the world

    OMG! Like..music in the

    difficult to play. You had
    to be like totally awesome
