Very nice presentation. You remind me of my first piano teacher many years ago. She was a voice major with a minor in piano. As a result, she sang the music I was learning. What's more beautiful than a Chopin Nocturne played on a piano? A Chopin Nocturne sung by a lovely soprano voice!
That is so true ! SING in yourself the melodies, do not only 'play piano', I explain that to my students. I like to kid : you don't often play piano on a piano, you sing, you play other instruments : THINK to the human voice, to other instruments, and your piano will sing !!
