Love Story meets Viva la Vida

Jon Schmidt combines Taylor Swift's Love Story with Coldplay's Viva la Vida. I could listen to this a million times over and never get tired of it.

Here is the link to the video on YouTube:

If that doesn't work, just go to YouTube and search for Jon Schmidt and Viva la Vida. Enjoy!

Fur Elise

This is a wonderful performance of Beethoven's Fur Elise. The pianist plays with correct fingering, at a good tempo, and with feeling. Watch the written notes go by as he plays them and pay attention to his fingering.
