Agree Scott, he seems like a really nice person. How many superstar players who are as busy as he is bother to post vids of themselves working with a metronome practicing modified Hanon exercises? He's explaining exactly what he's doing and why and telling the viewer his personal practice tips. It's a very good lesson for any pianist. You posted another one of him explaining how to relax while playing very fast passages. Not bragging but I'm almost as fast as he is and I continually have the problem of right hand burn out when I'm performing because I get excited, the band is cooking and into it and I forget to do what he said and then I hope the next tune is a ballad. I really took that vid to heart. I've bookmarked both of those and I suspect he's posted more lessons.
Mac, I know you're lurking you should save that Hanon link and post it when you're expounding about the virtues of practicing with a metronome.
