Happy World Piano Day! 🎹✨

Why March 29? Because the piano has 88 keys — and today is the 88th day of the year.
Perfect, right?

From Baroque harpsichords to modern concert grands, the piano has been the heartbeat of classical music for over 300 years. It's the instrument that gave voice to Chopin's poetry, Beethoven's fury, Debussy's dreams, and Rachmaninoff's storms.

Whether you're a concert pianist or just learning your first scale — today is YOUR day. Play something beautiful today.

What's the first piece you ever learned on piano? 👇.

I thought everyone might enjoy this post I found on SoundCloud of a jazzy medley of cool jazz sounds.

These songs are beautifully done By Böhm Organs Of America.

"Cool jazz" is a real art form -subtle, refined, expressive- and its solo parts are never overpowering. Bohm’s styles and instrumentation used in this arrangement are perfect… electric guitar, drawb

I make a Rugalach recipe and they are delicious. I use apricot, pineapple or cherry preserves as a filling.

These have an addition of vanilla thats sounds like it would make the cookie dough even tastier.

I agree that it is very important to count and count the rhythm out loud.

🥁 Counting out loud might not be your student’s favorite part of practice—but it’s one of the best ways to build their inner sense of rhythm.

Speaking the beat helps them connect to the music on a deeper level. Over time, that steady pulse becomes second nature, making their playing feel more natural and expressive.

Feels So Good - Music By Chuck Mangione
Performed By - Chuck Mangione

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 Today we are going to turn Back the hands of time and visit the 70’s and listen to a song composed and performed by Chuck Mangione. It is so sad that we are losing very talented musicians and fortunately they have left us a great selection of wonderful music for further generations to enjoy. We are truly going to miss this very talented musician! 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 "Feels So Good" is the title of an instrumental composition by the American flugelhorn player Chuck Mangione. It was written and produced by Mangione, and is the title track from his 1977 album Feels So Good. 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 "Feels So Good" was released as a single in early 1978, which reached number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in June of that year after spending a week atop the Billboard easy listening chart in May. The recording was also nominated for a Grammy Award for Record of the Year at the ceremony held in 1979, losing out to Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are". Mangione re-recorded the tune (as a slow ballad, and with lyrics sung by Don Potter) for his 1982 album 70 Miles Young. 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 Mangione was quoted describing the editing of the original version of the track as "major surgery." 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 Feels So Good was used in commercials and TV shows and is one of many of Mangione‘s well known pieces. 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹 He is an American artist who plays the Fluegelhorn and is very smooth and talented at his craft. Feels So Good is from the music genre Jazz , Jazz - Funk or fusion. This is a very nice use of flugelhorn, electric piano, saxophone, guitar, electric bass and drums. 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🎷 🌹

Enjoy!

🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🌹 It is so sad that we lost such a talented musician! Chuck Mangione will be truly missed. The song that I think he is most known for is Feels So Good. 🐱 🎼 🎶 🎵 🎹 🌹

Rest in peace Chuck Mangione — a masterful flugelhorn player, trumpeter and composer, and a generous advocate for music education.

We’ll be listening to — and practicing — “Feels So Good” tonight. 🤍
