Join me in my first Live Practice Session. I will be using Google Hangouts. This is a test to see how well it works.
If you are viewing from a mobile device, you should be fine. If you are viewing from a computer, make sure you have the current version of Flash – it will actually tell you on the screen below if you need to update, so check it out before we get started.
This is scheduled to air at 11AM Central Time. (It’s over now) Click on the play arrow on the video below to see the count down timer. If you get any kind of error, refresh the page, or click here to go to the actual broadcast page.
Please leave comments, feedback, questions below or by clicking the little red “Comments” link at top, right under the title. Your comment may or may not show up immediately. I will read the feedback and questions after the broadcast – I won’t be able to return comments or questions on the spot.
I would like to hear about quality of broadcast, as well as effectiveness of having a live session with me. Share with us any troubleshooting (if any) you had to do to view this broadcast. Check this page later to see all the feedback and offer any answers you may have to others questions – I might have questions too!
I hope we all have a good experience, it can only get better with feedback to be honest! 🙂

Travel To thailand says
I all the time used to read article in news papers but
now as I am a user of web therefore from now I am using net for articles or reviews, thanks to web.
Vacation To Thailand says
I visit everyday a few sites and websites to read articles or reviews, except this

Sorry I was not able to be with you at 11AM as I was running the streets. But I hope to catch you tomorrow. But you did sound nice and clear. Best of luck and God Bless.

I have watched the recorded video several times. I’m just wondering if you could split the screen when you switch to the keyboard video and add the sheet music on top. It would be so helpful to see the sheet music at the same time you are playing from it.
Thank you again for creating a Live Lesson and possible a private Lesson site. You really love your students to help us so much. Helen
Ken Allison says
The system seems to work ok. Now I have to catch up to your lesson book. I got lost in the shuffle. But can see now where you are going and would like to be included. Private lessons would be fundamental stuff, which I wouldn’t want to waste your time on. But once I catch up to your other students would like to be online lessoning with you. Thanks and keep up th good work.

I am sorry Lisa that I missed the live session.The only trouble I had with the session is the time difference throws me off , I never remember if there is 2 hours ahead or behind from the East and West coast.
donato says
clear broadcast….
Sandy says
Thanks ! This is a great idea . I’m so sorry about your son .im sure he is watching you and is very proud of you . I’ve had a rough last few years and have not been practicing my piano at all:0( so I basically will have to start from the beginning as I don’t remember notes or keys much . Hopefully I will get back to it soon and remember something :0) I happened to have today off and thought I should check out your live class ! I could hear and see everything perfectly on my iPad . :0) thank you for blessing others with your gift . You are a beautiful soul. :0) I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers
Dick Berry says

Tried to go to live broadcast on youtube but error’d out with not available on mobile device. You will need to authorize your vids on your tube to allow playing on mobile devices such as an iPad.

Comments from a technical standpoint. In addition to my previous comments of dropped and reconnected attendees: there will always be feed and streaming situations as a result of connection and speed capabilities of the providers as well as an individuals equipment. So what you are doing is right on. You may want to have your technical advisor look into what might be done from your end as well as the youtube function to minimize that situation. Otherwise;
Well done so far.
Clemency a Staffanell says
Very nice sound and visual. Good lesson!
Rae says
So happy to share this time with you. The Audi and Video were so clear. Will be looking forward to the next time. Good luck on your new venture. So happy to hear from you again.

I was connected from Honduras, using Internet Explorer on a Laptop with broadband internet connection.
Video and audio quality was excellent.
Go ahed Lisa, congratullations!
Cherri says
Thank you. This was great! Let us know when you will be on next. Congratulations and good luck.
Gale says
Love it. You’re doing great. Maybe you can have a dual screen. Sheet notes & piano
Karen says
Works great!
Nicholas says
The focus is soft. Check your depth of field and add a polarizing filter. Also suggest adding LED lighting directly above keys. Audio is good but a little over powering the piano sound. Perhaps a mixing board a small one two or four channel is good. Then tou will be able to control your ausio feom clipping.
Brenda says
Can hear and see you well.
Judy Snipes says
I have had no problems on my Surface Pro 2. The audio and picture is just great. I hope you do more. I would be interested in private sessions. It will make me more accountable for my practices, etc. Right now I video myself and then listen to see if I am doing my tempo correctly.
Edwin says
Sorry Lisa I didn’t know what happened with my iPad.
I didn’t mean REGREATS FROM ECUADOR, but
REGARDS from Ecuador
Gale says
Love it. You’re doing great.
Marilyn says
It would be helpful if you had printable sheet music so you could be looking at the music when do the exercise.
AJ says
You have had as many as 61 attending. The numbers drop and rise periodically probably due to connection problems with service providers..
The presentation is good, the sound OK, and will become more polished with practice and familiarity with the process. Congratulations!
Una says
Just after logging on I am in Ireland sound good but as I am late not sure what music you are using will try to get this sorted this is a good incentive
Cherri says
Now there is an echo.
Cherri says
I can here you fine. I hope this continues as I am throughly looking forward to more!
Ava says
To leave a comment, I have to go to the bottom of the comment section so I can’t see the video while commenting. Then when I click post, the video stops and I have to click the play again, missing a few words of the video.

I can clearly see the lesson page. But it is very familiar to me. I don’t know if a lesson page would need to be larger if it was new material.

I am standing by to take part in the experiment and will provide comments after the experience. What a wonderful idea – extending your knowledge and experience beyond your immediate surroundings; sharing your gift and ability to create music with others around the world whom you will probably never meet but those who’s lives you will enrich immeasurably. With the warmest of personal regard and Bon Chance!
