Most excited about listening to or learning? I know that we've heard some of the full pieces - Diversity and Q, for instance - but there are several which we've only heard parts of. Pianists, which piece are you most excited about playing? I'd have to say Q, Reflections, and Salsa Americana are on my top list to learn. Q, because I've never really played much jazz, so it'll be a good challenge, and it's a really awesome piece. Reflections sounds hard, but that's what I've said about all of the other pieces by Emily that I've learned. Salsa Americana sounds like it'll be just plain fun to play. I'm excited about Tutti Cuore, but mostly because I'm curious to see how close I got it by ear to the real version. ;D

I cannot wait to learn Q, Diversity, Reflections and Hot Peppers I like all of them so so much, but I'll probably start with Hot Peppers

I'm actually super psyched about learning Q. I haven't been motivated to learn anything, especially anything classical even though there's a ton of stuff I want to learn (I know; shame on me), so I've been getting pretty bored without a challenge. I've never played any jazz (beyond Take Five and Emily's Jazz Angles) and Q sounds pretty complicated. I dunno; I've never seen sheet music. But considering I'm a jazz newbie, Q should be a good challenge.
I actually HATED playing long-short rhythms when I was little; I thought they sounded ridiculous.

I'm excited for this new jazz stuff Emily has written. I play in jazz band all the time but that's nothing like what Emily has written. I think it will be a real challenge!
