I am Pianoimproman, a Twitch music/creative streamer who streams full time at the age of 72! I'll play the most upvoted requests! Also, AMA!

My short bio: Hey all, my name is Pianoimproman! I'm a professional pianist, singer, and entertainer who streams full time in the creative section of Twitch.tv! Livestreaming has completely changed my life! I opened up Twitchcon 2016 and had a blast :)

Reddit has been so kind to me in the past, so I thought I'd come back to say hey and spread the love of music! Ask me anything you want in the comments, and I'll also record and post the most upvoted requests. This isn't my first rodeo ;)

You can also catch me on Twitch today at 7pm EST at twitch.tv/pianoimproman :)

coryrenton2 karma

Has there been any legal trouble with performing music owned by publishing companies? What is stylistically the most difficult music to play?

pianoimproman9 karma

To your first question, nope!

I'd say the most difficult music to play would be sight reading exceptionally technical classical/romantic music :)
