Hey family! Here is a video of me using my COPET Method (Composer Oriented Piano Expression and Technique) Method. It’s using storytelling to create compositions and improvisations. As well as I use the same tool when it comes to repertoire I’m learning. The purpose is for you to develop not just your piano technique, but your artistry-so that your audience can relate to the story you’re telling them through the music. In the video I’m thinking of my granny who passed away February 2025, and I decided to create an improv. The melodies you will hear, even down to the phrasing of the melodic lines tells the story of how much I miss and cherish my granny. Enjoy this personal, sentimental improv. Dedicated to my granny.

Hey Family! Here is an in depth video on how to upload a video to Cliffs Keys. If anyone has any questions, please don’t hesitate to list them below in the comment section. @Marcia Strongwater I’m also going to upload the video in the classroom section of Cliffs Keys. 😊
