My oldest kid, a 2nd grader, has started taking some (group) piano classes on a trial basis.
She seems to enjoy it a lot, so I bought her a 5-octave keyboard, a stand and a seat - a $300+ investment.
As it happens, I played piano for 11 years as a kid, so this has also provided the motivation for me pick it up again.
I’ve been YouTube’ing a lot for some good riffs to play and I ran into this video - while I can’t even imagine attempting to play the piece, watching one of the greatest pianists in history, Oscar Peterson, is still a phenomenal and inspiring experience.

Was it just me or was the audio quality on the video horrible?
