I downloaded the videos for the covers of yours that I like and turned them into mp3.... I wanted to ask if that was okay .__. And uhh... if it is, I wanted to ask for an album name to put them under, hahahahaha

NO YOU CAN'T
Nah, of course you can. And a name, hmm... how about "ZA ISHITAH"?

When did you start playing piano? How many years did you learn piano with a teacher? What softwares do you use to edit your videos? Do you like sushi? How many hours to you practice a day, a week? What program do you use to transcribe sheet music?

I started playing the piano 9 years ago, only less than a year with a teacher (first year of piano) and I use Sony Vegas to add brightness/contrast to my videos.
I love sushi, I practice about 30 minutes a day, and I use Finale 2011 for my sheet music transcriptions

I was wondering...how many years have you been playing piano and when do think you were able to play it very well?

I've been playing for 9 years now. And I think there's a formula that you need 10,000 hours to be an expert at something. But I have to say, even though I'm getting close to 10 years of piano experience, I feel that I'm just starting out. There's so much more to learn out there.

Hey there ishter, can you make some more video of you playing piano of anime that looks like your Anohana ED and Kokoro Connect ED,,, i really like that video a lot so tragic ( T ^ T).. well anyway thanks my favorite video of you is anohana ED so keep it up :) ... and sorry for my english :P

Currently doing some Vocaloid songs this season, which is imo has a lot of emotional songs

tehishter you like ecchi anime? I would like your response. ;D

Nope, I hate ecchi anime. I like psychological, slice of life and thriller anime.

Would you and Animenz please please please think about doing a transcription and play a duet of Guren no Yumiya together? I loved your duet on Jiyuu no Tsubasa and well, it would be too freaking epic ;__;

No plans at the moment, sorry!

What kinda music do you listen to? ^^ like... do you stick to OST or...?

Usually classical music, but I love to listen to the nostalgic, old anime music. It reminds me of my childhood lol

I'm still learning how to read the individual notes in sheet music. Could you recommend a few easy pieces that I could practice on until i get the hang of it or maybe an exercise I can do every day before practicing that would get me closer to sight reading?

Scales, definitely. Czerny and Hanon exercises, but don't spend too much time on them as they're really boring. Instead, try finding easy pieces from your favorite composers~

I've recently gotten into piano after watching your wonderful transcriptions and thought that I should start out small before making my own anime transcriptions. So could you recommend a few easy classical pieces that a beginner like me could practice with?

The best way you can approach this is by listening to the works of composers. Listen to Scarlatti, Beethoven, Haydn, Mendelssohn, Chopin, etc. Narrow down which style you really like to listen to.
After doing that, then you can narrow down the simple pieces that the composer made and you can practice those~

How much do you practice a day? I have been playing piano for a few years and I want to start taking it more seriously since recently, I have been inspired a lot by you and Animenz.

About 2 hours a day (because I'm memorizing hours of music for next year's projects - I can't say what at the moment).
Usually if I have no plans, I spend about 15-30 minutes on the piano a day.

Since when did you start living in Canada?

I've been here for 5 years now. Before this, I spent my teenage years in California (United States).
I was in the Philippines during my childhood.
