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! 🙂

Hi Lisa,
Thank you for your invitation. I will be working at that time.
Best of luck to you with your new endeavor.

Hooray! What a great idea, Lisa. I am now home most of the time caring for my 92 yr old Mom so this is just PERFECT- will try to log in- thanks!
Amy
I am so excited about this I am standing by I need this extra boost to get me back on track
Thank you Lisa
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!

Had to come back to your announcement page to get this to you
Hello Lisa. Icould hear you well here in the Czech Republic.
Hear you fine.
It looks good sounds good but I had to change the power options so the screen doesn’t go off.
coming in loud and clear!
I am hearing you fine. I’m on a laptop with Firefox.
I am hearing this. No piano right now. It was just delivered to our new address. Burt want to watch anyway. Looking forward to it.
I am hearing you fine.
Yep! I can here you fine. I hope this continues as I am throughly looking forward to more!
I’m on my iPad using Google Chrome within the UK.
Yep. I can see the piano fine.
Hi Lisa.
I hear you fine
Jim
I can hear you. I am excited. thanks for the invitation

I’m in NY on a laptop with Chrome
YEAH I can see/hear you….
Hi from Spain
From British Columbia Canada
Can see and hear. On my phone using safari browser. In Indiana:-)
I can hear you!!
Hello, greeting from Honduras.
Video and audio are very good!
Keyboard looks good on Internet Explorer
The piano looks like usually does on your videos.
I can keyboard OK.
Have the keyboard in view
Yes, I can see the keyboard.
I can see the keyboard just fine. It does have a shadow from lighting. It does not keep me from seeing keyboard though.
From Switzerland
it seems all to be perfect! Tone, Screen etc
Keyboard is visible.
Thanks!
Mario
Looks good, sounds good, a little blurry when you wave to fast.
That looks good. The sound was in sync with the video.
Chords sound good.
From Panama Sound and Video is great on ipad
Sounds fine and is visible.
Chords don’t sound so good. Sort of like the piano is in a deep well.
visibility is great and sound is also
Keyboard and sound are very good
from Vancouver BC…9am here….clear picture; good sound….
Does this method allow you to hear us speak if you set some option?
Keyboard just delivered. Will join you now. Sounds good and looks good.
I like this. Sounds good so far!
I am seeing fine.
Screen share is working fine and very visible in India.
Audio & visual clear for the most part. Sometimes audio tends to be softer, maybe u r not on the microphone??
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.
Congratulations Lisa, go on
Everything are perfect.
Regrets from Ecuador
Looks & sounds great.
Love what you do, thank you for all you do!
Awesome, I hope you can keep this up and have more. It helps us visual learners 🙂
Yes, it is the voice. Piano sound is consistent. Thank u for everything u do for us ur students.
From Maryland
Watching on my kindle. The webcast pauses once in a while but everything else is great
Coming through just great.
Watching on my Iphone and sound and video are both good
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 here you fine. I hope this continues as I am throughly looking forward to more!
Now there is an echo.
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!
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
It would be helpful if you had printable sheet music so you could be looking at the music when do the exercise.
Love it. You’re doing great.
Sorry Lisa I didn’t know what happened with my iPad.
I didn’t mean REGREATS FROM ECUADOR, but
REGARDS from Ecuador
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.
Can hear and see you well.
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.
Works great!
Love it. You’re doing great. Maybe you can have a dual screen. Sheet notes & piano
Thank you. This was great! Let us know when you will be on next. Congratulations and good luck.
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!
Great !
Happy to be here. Hope to see you soon in another live lesson.
Had no issues. Connected via cell phone.
Love
Mirna
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.
Very nice sound and visual. Good lesson!
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.
Thank you very much, Lisa. It was very good.

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.
Nicholas
All sound and video was extremely clear with the Internet Explorer Browser. Thanks for coming back to us. I know everything is in God’s time and He is in control. Bless You. Looking forward to your next visit with us. Love You
I’m sorry Lisa, i missed your broadcast, i just had the chance to read your email….
how will we know when there is going to be another wonderful live lesson? Will be notified via email like this time? I don’t want to miss this great oppertunity you have given us all.
Joined late, looks good and sound is good
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
clear broadcast….
I heard you clearly but I was miss the sesson but am going to watch it now.
clear picture
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.
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 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
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.
You came in nice and clear and I am sorry I did not catch you at 11AM, but will try tomorrow. Thanks I hope it works, from New Mexico.
