One year of piano progress (as a 40-year-old beginner)

So I spent a year learning to play the piano. This video - the result of probably about 350-400 hours of practice - doesn't even come close to some of the one-year progress videos out there, but I'm putting it up here as a record of my progress, and hopefully to inspire someone else to take a leap into starting something they've always wanted to do. I messed around with a bunch of different songs that I couldn't include in this video, and I'm planning to continue tweaking everything I worked on - as you can probably hear, my tempo and dynamics need work even on the stuff I can 'play'. I used a bunch of resources, but some of the most useful were: Jane's Piano (YouTube channel) Andrew Furmanczyk (YouTube channel) Alfred's Basic Level 1 () My keyboard is a Roland FP10: (Disclaimer: These are affiliate links, I'll a commission if you buy the book or piano from them.
