Small Talk - 18 Still enjoying DTM at eighty
I am almost 80 years old. For quite some time now, I have been working on typing classical music as a habit every morning.

Small Talk - 16 Review of Beethoven's Late Three Piano Sonatas
I guess I decided to start this "Classical Music with DTM" when my teacher chose Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 32 to play at his recital. I thought it would be a good idea to get on board with my teacher's conception and start typing, and I am afraid that this last... -
Elgar Cello Concert, Op.85 1st. Mov. - DTM
This is Elgar's Cello Concerto, first movement. It is a very impressive piece with the cello in the leading role, and is one of the most famous cello concertos.
