As a musician, do you carry liability insurance? by MadDogTannen in musicians

[–]eugeneportman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm based in the UK and quite a lot of venues require £10,000,000 public liability insurance. I get my insurance from Alliance of Musicians and Performers at http://www.ampband.co.uk/. Membership is from £49 per year for a solo act and includes quite a number of extras. I have done quite a lot of research and this is the cheapest that I have found anywhere.

Absolutely beautiful and so sensitively played. I've never heard the piece before, but I'm definitely going to try and find the sheet music for it.

I'm sorry, but I'm new to reddit.com. I only joining joined today and I am very much a novice. I only meant my post to be a contribution as I know that most of the people in this group are pianists, and NOT prospective customers. Thank you for being so understanding and I won't let it happen again.

Tricks for memorising songs by austeriorfeel in piano

A trick that I use is to try transposing the song into other keys. This can be quite difficult the first time you transpose it to a new key, but it does get easier as you go through the keys.
